MacBook Pro :: Why Is It Taking 23 Hours To Download A Movie
Mar 31, 2012
Before i left my house there were 2 hours remaining on 2 movies i downloaded to rent. Now I am at the airport and they say 23 hours remaining I have a flight in 2 hours. What happened and what can i do to cut the time down if I want to watch at least one of the movies on the plane?

I don't understand why it takes so long, is this unusual? I have a great connection with my DSL, and I am only downloading one item. There is nothing special about this movie, it is 1 1/2 hr long.

I have tried to download the newest version of itunes onto my MacBook several times and it keeps showing the download to take 24 to 30 hours to download and before it has told me after trying to download for an hour or two that the session has timed out and then just stops. I need to update my iphone 4 to the newest version but can not get the itunes up to date first.

I had codes for a movie to get from the itunes store. I started downloading them yesterday for 1 movie and the extras to that movie and it needed 20+ hrs for it to finish. Is that normal? I got 7 hrs to go with one download completed. I have a macbook pro if that matters.

I'm restoring my data (roughly 78GB) because, when trying to partition my disk, I got the annoying "large files cannot be moved blah blah" error. So I backed up (which took almost 5 hours), formatted, and am now currently restoring, at an estimated time of 18-21 hours (it fluctuates, even said 1 day 5 hours at one point). I'm using an old LaCie 120 External, a few years old, but at the least it should be 5400 RPM. Is there a problem that's causing it to take this long, or is this normal? Oh, I forgot to list specs. On the 2.4 ghz Core 2 Duo, 2GB ram, 8600m GT model.

On my mac in windows 7, I did a deep system scan. The scan for the windows drive took about maybe 50 minutes, but when it got to the mac drive, it's taking 4+ hours. The scan is still on for about 5 hours right now. I just got my mac so I didn't really install or have a lot of files. I'm looking at the "current operation" of BitDefender and it's been at E:Applications (whatever is under application) for the majority of the time. My question is what the hell do they put in the mac(stock mac) for it to take over 5 hours?

With my new DSLR/RAW shots, I've bloated iPhoto to over 105GB for just over 20,000 photos. Was doing housecleaning, deleting files and the "aw *****" moment hit where I deleted some i wanted. Went into TimeMachine and did a Restore to my external 2TB HD (FW800) as temp place. Now, when I went to delete that 105GB file started last night 10:30 pm, here 7.5 hr later: still churning away.....wtf did I do wrong??

I've searched and I still cannot find a free program that will let me burn a movie to a DVD. I used handbrake to bring the video file down to 4.5 GB. I'm trying to put it on a 4.7 GB disc and iDVD still won't let me because it says it is too big! I've been tinkering with iDVD and it's making me crazy. There must be a way to just burn it. I don't need a menu. Keep in mind that I want to be able to watch it on a dvd player (as opposed to just transferring the file). Just an FYI, the video file is 3 hours and 28 mins. It can be .mkv or .mp4 (through handbrake).

I'm at a university and I've had a MacBook Pro for about a year now. The OS is Mac OS X 10.5.8. The processor is 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo. The Memory is 4 GB DDR2. When I'm at the University we use a secure wireless network. When I option click on the AirPort icon, I get the following readings:
0:26:cb:82:8d:80
Channel: 11
RSSI: -68
Transmit Rate: 130
Because it's a university-wide system, I have no idea what the router information is. When I asked our IT staff about it - a group of part-time college students - they just shrug and tell me everything is working. I can download movie files in an instant. Zip files, even the most basic ones, take about half an hour. This is true even when the movie and the zip file is on the same website. A movie file, six or eight times the size of the zip, downloads much faster. I've read through this forum and others. I followed this suggestion: I deleted my AirPort setting and reinstalled it under "wireless". This did not seem to change anything.

I have noticed that it is taking too long to download YouTube videos. I have tried a few things: emptied cache, reset Safari, downloaded OnyX and cleaned everything up I could. I also reset my wireless router, but those have not worked. I have also updated Adobe FlashPlayer, Flip4Mac, and checked for new updates from Apple. With all of that, nothing has seemed to work. Not sure what to do next.

I recently purchased my Macbook and I noticed that the battery power is jumping at least an hour every time I check how much battery power it has left. I wanted to know if this was normal.

I'm trying to download The Social Network, but every time it gets to 10mb downloaded, it goes down to zero KB, and starts over and will loop once or twice until finally saying the file is corrupt and giving me an error 8008. I deleted the tmp file on my MacBook Pro, and that didn't solve it. I also tried on my Windows PC on an entirely different network and it did the exact same thing. Is this a server problem on the host's part?

Purchased a downhill mtb film - From the Inside Out on my Mac mini on Friday night.
Started up my macbook pro tonight to download it to that [same account], but it is not showing as available to download?? If i go to view my account and into purchases, it shows up [along with 2 free apps purchased on my ipad].
How do i get it?? Don't want to risk going through the store again and getting charged £9.99 twice.
