YouTube - loading extremely slow!

YouTube videos are loading extremely slow! This happens if I am connected to WiFi or 3G. They use to load a lot faster when I first bought my device.

Since you're in the EU it seems, I won't recommend turning off IPv6... a general fix otherwise.
Try putting these numbers in Network>TCP/IP>DNS Servers, for the Interface you connect with...
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
Then Apply.
You can also add them to your Router.

All videos load extremely slow

I have the Break app and the YouTube app and all videos load extremely slow on my ipod touch 5g. It makes it not worth trying to load any videos. I'm currently at work and the wireless here is limited to 1mb. But I have my ipod touch 3g sitting right next to me and it loads at the expected speed (based on the bandwidth cap here). Is the video quality increased automatically, sucking more bandwidth? I can't find any settings to change the quality though. This makes viewing videos not even worth trying.
I'm going to do some tests tonight when I get home which has a 8mbps average download for wired so my wireless won't be limited at all.
Anyone else experiencing any slowness isssues with videos?

Internet videos are becoming more bloated all the time.
Many things can affect it though.
So we know more about it...

Why is it YouTube loads really slow sometimes even when I'm connected to wifi ?

Why is it YouTube loads really slow sometimes even when I'm connected to wifi ?

Hard to say. The speed of your Internet connection. Congestion on YouTube's servers, problems at any point in between you and them... When you are connected to WiFi, you will get a substantially higher resolution version of some videos than you do on 3G.
Are you using the youtube app or are you just accessing it via a web browser.

RAW picture previews loading extremely slow since IOS 8 using the Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit

Hi all
First, sorry for my poor english, I hope you understand my problem.
Device is iPad Air Wi-Fi with IOS 8.
I just realized this issue yesterday. I wanted to import some of my RAW pictures from my Nikon camera's SD card, using the Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit. In the Photos app / Import tab, the RAW picture previews show extremely slow. It takes a second to show each photo preview before import. A second for every single picture preview
For example, if you have 500 pictures on your SD card, and you want to import pictures from this card but just some selected, then you need to wait for an overview preview a lot of minutes. On IOS 7 this process was maybe 10 seconds for all of the pictures...

Same problem here. As a professional wedding photographer, sifting through my photos while on the go is the reason for me purchasing the iPad (Retina) 2 years ago, I now have an $800 paperweight after iOS8.x.x. Apple, if you actually read these, please inform your engineers to fix this in the next update or at least provide us with a solution to return to iOS7.x.x. Makes me wonder if there is any QA or testing that goes on before an update is released. As an FYI, here's my thread from a few weeks ago: Native Photos App, Slow... No, I mean really slow.

Web pages loading EXTREMELY slow

It takes FOREVER for any web page to load (we're talking like several minutes even to load Google search), but it shows I have full signal strength. However, my husband's MacBook is functioning fine as well as his PC which all use the same network. I have an AirPort and AirPort extreme. I've even tried directly connecting to the AirPort extreme to see if that would help the speed problem, and it did--but only for a few minutes. After that, it displayed the same problems as before--MIND-BENDINGLY SLOW page load. I've cleared the cache, history, renew DHCP, reset the router... everything I can think of and still to no avail.
This all started happening after I was using my MacBook to connect my XBox360 to the internet and had to change some of the MacBook settings. I have since restored all the settings and turned off Internet Sharing.
I took it to the Genius Bar, twice, and they said it has to be my network, because it connects and loads pages at lightning speeds when I'm on the Apple Store network. Ugh. This is sooo frustrating and has basically rendered my mac useless.
Ideas?

Here are a couple things you can try:
1) If possible, bypass your router, and connect directly to your cable/dsl modem.
2) Try a different DNS (domain name server). This can resolve the problem if the slowness stems from looking up (i.e. "contacting") the web server. You are probably currently using the DNS of your ISP. Since your husband is not experiencing the problem, this might be a stretch, but still worth a shot. You can try OpenDNS (https://www.opendns.com/start/)

Videos load extremely slow

I just bought this MBP a month ago. Anytime I try and watch videos, whether it's on youtube, facebook, yahoo or anywhere else they take forever to load. My internet isn't the fastest but I used to have a 2007 macbook and I never had this problem. Now with much better hardware on the new MBP, I'm completely baffled as to why videos are loading so slowly. I use the latest version of Firefox. I can't find any helpful topics online and If I can't figure something out I will have to call apple tech support.

After updating flash player, youtube loads very slow

Youtube videos load very slowly since I updated flash player. Once they are loaded, they play ok, but I cannot skip ahead, etc.

Andy..
Keep in mind, you can't "skip ahead" any farther then the video has buffered but try the following since it loads slow.
Uninstall your current copy of the Flash plugin then reinstall then restart your Mac > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
And if you haven't done so, empty the Safari cache. From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
You can also try resetting Safari. Back to the menu bar click Safari > Reset Safari
Select the top 5 buttons, click Reset.
Quit then relaunch Safari... try a video.
And make sure your system software is up to date. Click your Apple menu > Software Update...

Page load EXTREMELY slow - maybe due to Muse re-optimizing JPGs as PNGs?

Muse Team, please help and advise.
I'm using a bunch of transparency, shadow and bevel effects on photos in my website, and the load time is horribly slow. I assume due to the PNGs that Muse has created to achieve some of these effects - some of them are more than a MB in size! I've tried to open these Muse-generated PNGs and re-optimize them down in Photoshop, but each time I transfer the down-sized PNGs to my FTP, they bloat back up again. The website in question is www.chuckburgi.com. It contains 5 bloated PNGs that are semi-transparent and I see them as down-sized on my desktop but they bloat back up to their original huge size when I FTP them or put them on Dropbox. How can I fix this problem?
Thank you!

Hi Zak,
Bad news. I think maybe there is ANOTHER BUG.
I tried the fix you suggested - taking out fill opacity and trying the effect with object opacity instead. The rollover stopped working. The hidden image shows on rollover but the picture states don’t change.
So, I figured maybe I should create the images in PS first and just import them for the rollover states, that way I could avoid using any opacity settings in Muse. I made two JPGs to size and imported them. Rollover still broken.
I started a fresh document and brought a newly created Composition Widget into it (the built in Tooltip widget from Muse), and added my own pictures to the States. Still broken.
I brought in a fresh Composition Widget from Muse Themes and set that one up with PNGs instead of JPGs for the images. Again, hidden image shows but rollover is broken.
I inserted a plain image (not a composition) and set the rollover states in that - that one works.
It appears that rollovers in Composition Widgets are broken. So I can’t even TOUCH my original site’s block of show/hide photos to fix them without the actions breaking.
Can you help?
Here’s a URL for my test site:
http://chuckbugtest.businesscatalyst.com/index.html
I am posting the Muse file for that and the image files to my Dropbox:

Youtube Loading Incredibly Slow/With Errors

Ever since I updated to v37 browsing Youtube has been a nightmare. I get the spinning wheel for 20 seconds adn than an error. I refresh and it finally works but I have to do this for every video. I have disabled all of my addons and it still happens. I have checked and made sure Java/Flash are all up to date and they are. I have tried using the html5 player but it still takes forever to load. I was hoping 37.2 would fix things but it hasnt. Why is watching videos on youtube such a hassle but when I try using Chrome it loads up immediately without any errors. Solutions? THanks

ReportDocument.Load() Extremely slow and frustrating!

Hi,
We have 3 workstations all with exactly the same hardware specs. The software specs are as follows:
Machine 1 - Win XP, VS 2008, CR 2008, SQL 2005
Machine 2 - Vista Business, VS 2008, CR 2008, SQL 2005
Machine 3 - Vista Business, VS 2008, CR 2008, SQL 2008
All the crystal assemblies are version 12.x
All of the machines are loading the exact same report files, and running the exact same code to do this, i.e the same project in VS.
Machine 1 takes about 5-7 seconds for the first load, then every other load after that, regardless of if it's the same report over and over, or different ones each time, take about 3-5 seconds.
Machine 2 takes about 5-7 seconds for the first load, then every other load after that, as above, regardless of if it's the same or a different report takes about 1 second to load.
Machine 3 takes anywhere from 1 minute up to two minutes, for the first and every other time a report is loaded.
We are stumped and have no idea what could be causing this.
Regards,
Paul M.

> Machine 1 - Win XP, VS 2008, CR 2008, SQL 2005
> Machine 2 - Vista Business, VS 2008, CR 2008, SQL 2005
> Machine 3 - Vista Business, VS 2008, CR 2008, SQL 2008
So if you connect to SQL 2005 from Machine 3, do you get the same slow performance?
Sincerely,
Ted Ueda

Apple TV 3 Loading extremely slow

Hey all,
We recently updated to the newest update to the Apple TV 3. Since the update, the unit takes over 30 seconds to load any content, or longer, and sometimes fails to load content imagery at all. I know this generally is because of the internet, but we run fine on every other device (at close to 60 mbps). I have an older Apple TV in the bedroom, and this seem to load faster than the new one – which makes no sense. Any ideas what could be going on? I have tried hard resets, I've even restored it in iTunes to no avail.
I don't know if it is related, but Home Sharing requires the unit to be reset (soft) every single time. Otherwise, no computers will load until it is reset.
Using hard ethernet cord straight from the modem (and yes, even tried switching ports and using only wifi on the Apple TV – no luck).
Thanks in advance!
Jonathan

In my opinion Apple is having some serious bandwith issues. They are horrible slow. I was loading a movie to my Apple TV (2) on the evening of the Moutain Lion Launch. It took me more than 10 Minutes to start the playback. I'm on a 100Mbit line in Germany. Usually this takes not longer than 5 seconds (worst case, most of the time its ready after 2 seconds). I then did a test with Windows 8 beta download and got about 10Megabyte/sec right away from the Microsoft/Akamai Server.
Apple really needs to put some of their millions and billions of dollars in their Infrastrucutre. Maybe they should call someone who knows how to handle these loads (akamai f.e.)

Why is InDesign CS6 loading extremely slow????

The company I work for has bought several licensed copies of the creative suite and ever since it was installed; the machine with the following specifications that I use:
CPU: i7-3770 @ 3.4 (4 core, 8 threads, 8mb cache)
O/S: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit (6.1, Built 7601)
RAM: 8GB DDR3
V/C: Radeon HD 5450
HDD: 60GB OCZ-Vertex 3 SSD (Primary)
HDD: 1x 2TB + 1 x 1TB SATA 3 drives.
Approximately 3 weeks ago, the machine became unresponsive due to a Photoshop CS6 64-bit issue along with Internet Explorer. At which point, I had to kill the process in the Task Manager; and ever since then, it has not been the same since.
All 64-bit applications for Adobe Creative Suite, take so long to open; that I can go and get a cup of coffee and come back only to find that it is still bloody loading. If I load for example, Photoshop 32-bit edition, it loads almost immediately. This is good at first, however as soon as I use the drag drop feature as I always do. Especially when I need to crop a high resolution image, regardless of whether the high resolution image (8MB to 16MB) stored locally or on a server; the application takes for ever and ever to load the damn image.
The amount of memory allocated to the application, starts at just over 125MB and then spikes up to 1.5TB; at which point still does not do any thing except sit there idling for no apparent reason.
This morning, opening InDesign CS6, took approximately 10 minutes to open itself. My recollection last week, I had closed all files before closing the application itself. So why the hell is it taking this bloody long to do so.
I have checked the Adobe Application Manager and everything is up to date. Microsoft Windows 7 is up to date. So what else is the problem. Could it be the services that is causing the issue?
Answers / Solutions please?
Thanks in advance.

Before I deleted the fonts, I checked the time date stamp. As I also use Corel Draw X6, a program call "Bit Font Navigator" which loads third party fonts and gives a listing; where you can choose which fonts you want and they can be installed. The installation is only by shortcut, so the actual fonts themselves, are not actually sitting in the Fonts directory; unless of course you physically copy the whole thing into it which is rather stupid.
Every time I load the system (fresh boot), there is an indicated time date stamp on the very day in which it automatically loads the fonts from an external source into the Windows Fonts directory.
I only checked the latest dates and subsequently deleted the fonts of that particular grouping; which was 29/04/2013. I didn't touch anything else. As for Tahoma font, I checked that too. It shows the date as 11/05/2011. Just to reiterate, I only touched the fonts that had the year 2013 in them.
After a reboot thereafter, that's when I noticed these further issues.
Hmm..... I think it is possible I might have deleted Verdana by mistake, since the time date stamp for that is 03/04/2013. In which case might explain the circumstances I experienced.

ALL HTTPS SITES LOAD EXTREMELY SLOW - WHY?

I am running windows xp + firefox 17 - any https site loads very slowly , while in other browsers no problem at all.

If you reset Firefox or otherwise cleared the cache/preferences, the SPDY setting may have been saved/stored. You can try to '''Clear Now''' the '''Cache''' and '''Site Preferences''' with '''Time range to clear''' set to '''Everything''' via '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Clear%20Recent%20History Clear Recent History] and check each time after enabling and disabling.

IWeb sites load extremely slow from various computers

I am sure this must be the case for everyone, but if I click on an iWeb link vs. a homepage link the difference in loading times in amazing. My old homepages load in seconds, iWeb in minutes.
This is the case if I go to the iWeb page on my mac, my pC at home, a PC at work, whatever.
Have others noticed this?

Hi NH Sullivan,
I too have also noticed less than satisfactory loading times, even for simple iWeb sites. (Again, regardless of platform, browser etc.) It seems to take a particularly long time to load the navigation sections and photo galleries.
I have not looked into a solution to this, but I have looked at the source code for iWeb generated sites and to me (Although I'm not an expert) there is a lot of unnecessary code.

Youtube load slow

Hi fore some reason youtube load very slow on my pc with firefox.
problem is new and just came . funny thing i i use chrom or IE it load normal.
I just hate the 2 other browsers, and really like to get firefox work normal agin
can anyone help ?

You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
*Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
Clear the cache and cookies only from websites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
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.
