May 2, 2010i've got a 6 year old 12 inch powerbook G4 1.33 ghz that has internet speeds around 5177kbps, but overall its a bit dated sooo I wanted something a bit more new. I recently picked up a white 2.4 ghz Intel Core 2 Duo Macbook, HOWEVER the internet wireless speeds on it is dismal in comparison. I'm getting download speeds on average around 405kbps and upload speeds are pretty much non-existant! I've matched both of them to the same internet settings and they are both running 10.5.8. So again I'm stumped and if anybody can give me some idea as to what to do, Id greatly appreciate it!

Jan 23, 2010it seems for me that Safari 4 is very slow at loading content. Most of the time, i am on broadband, but when i go over my limit, i get shaped to a much slower speed. (Typical Australia ISP!)
I noticed that while Safari loads a page, on the bottom toolbar, it says....
Loading "Website" completed # of #.
for example, on "ninemsn.com.au" it can take me quite a while for the page to load, as Safari does not load the content until ALL or most of the content has been downloaded.
is there a way/plugin for safari 4 to load content AS SOON as its been downloaded? I would like to see my pages load immediately as soon as the content has been loaded.
ITunes :: OSX Very Slow To Load With Most Content In ICloud
Mar 12, 2012This is perhaps an expected result, but from the launch of iTunes (V10.6) in OSX (V10.7.3) until the beach ball stops spinng takes close to 5 minutes. I have just under 20,000 tracks in iTunes. Probably 95% are in iCloud. I suspect that this is the culprit. The track list loads within 30 seconds, but the spinning beach ball of death just keeps on chugging. I do not display album art.

Safari :: Slow System Response Due To Its Web Content CPU Usage
Jun 18, 2012I have about 200 Tabs open and a DSL line. Safari Web Content frequently uses near or more than 100% of my CPU time, and the computer runs dead slow.
How can I modify Web Content so that it does not refresh tabs in the background?
Maybe I can at least get a "toggle" to control when it tries to access that huge junk server at "url..." ?Right now its taking over 30 seconds to respond to clicks, and then the same sort of delay before drawing the new screen.

MacBook Pro :: Slow Loading Of Internet Upon Starting An Internet Browser
Apr 28, 2012I have a macbook pro and have recently noticed that when initially loading any of, google chrome, firefox or safari it takes a very long time for the internet to load the webpages.
It says that there is a full wireless connection but will not load the webpage.
Once the webpage has finally loaded after about a minute, subsequent browsing is as fast as can be expected upon my broadband connection, loading pages in <1s.
However the problem reappears whenever I open a new window, or anything else that might use the internet such as the app store, itunes or apple software update.Â

OS X :: Webpage Loading Very Slow / Slow Internet Or CPU Speed?
Oct 30, 2010Is there a way to tell which one is slow, if anything is going slow? I have an extremely old PC which is normally ok for most things, but gets bogged down if I am doing too many things.I was so annoyed with our national real estate site after they changed the format that I wrote a letter once a long time ago.. and I was ready to let them have it again, listing all the reasons why it is so bad and so much worse than the original.
Today for the first time, I accessed the site (mls.ca) using my new iMac. It was like lightening speed, comparatively speaking.Wow, suddenly I knew why the mls people hadn't changed their new format.But then I started going to other sites.. like airmiles.ca for example, and it was slow as heck... and stalling.. etc.
How would I be able to tell whether it is an internet slowness or the computer being slow?

Apr 14, 2009I tried various software on both OS X and Windows, on the same computer using the same connection, and the result is always the same. In Windows, I barely notice that they're running, and in OS X, I'm always needing to refresh the pages several times for them to load, even when it's downloading at a speed of 2 KB/sec.
So what's the big idea? Is there something about ports/sockets that I need to know about OS X?
OS X :: Slow Internet On My Mac?
Jun 18, 2009well I got my Mac about 4 months ago and can't deal with the way the WiFi acts on my Mac anymore. The internet is fine when it's loading webpages, but it's really slow at loading images, streaming and downloading. For example, this forum loads extremely fast, but if someone had a GIF for a sig, it would finish loading in about 10 minutes.
I searched for help but a lot of the information I found doesn't seem similar to my problem. I'm starting to think that there's just something wrong with my Mac.
Also, the thread about adding DNS to make the internet faster was confusing. (Since I don't even know what it does. ) I attempted to try it but it just creates an extremely slower network for me called wireless.
OS X :: Why Is The Internet On My Mac So Slow?
Jan 29, 2010I have an aluminium macbook that I got just over a year ago. Internet was fine until about a month ago. Now it's completely sporadic. Sometimes it takes a second to load a page, sometimes it takes 5 minutes. Without rhyme or reason. I can open a page I've been loading for ages in a new tab and it will load straight away. We have three other computers (pc's) on the network and they're all completely fine.
I've done speed tests. They've ranged from 13kb/s to 2mb/s. It is ridiculously annoying and I have no idea what to do. I don't know why it's changed, I haven't changed any settings. Everything else, word, itunes etc. runs fine. I asked this a couple of weeks ago with no result,

Sep 22, 2007For some time now, I have noticed that my Mac's internet is running super slow. I am saying slower than what I see on my PeeCee (Used for gaming such as CSS and Half-Life)! So, I set out on a Google journey to find that a lot of people have been having the same problem with they Airport. It seems that in some Apple updates, the Airports are having issues. So, I tried to fix it and I came up with this wonderful guide. My internet now loads Facebook in 3 sec instead of the 30 sec it was before and I can watch my good old YouTube videos in a flash.
First, Open your "System Preferences";
Next, go to your "Network" settings;
From there, make sure Airport is highlighted and click "Configure";
Click the "TCP/IP" tab;
Type 4.2.2.1 into the blank DNS Servers box, hit return and type 4.2.2.2 then click the "Apply Now" button like so;
Your internet may restart, but it will come back on right after you hit Apply! And your internet should now return to speeds like it used to have. I am running 10.4.10 and I am proud to say my Internet is fast as hell.
OS X :: Slow Internet On Mac - Fast On PC
Apr 6, 2009The internet has bee moving slowly on my 24" imac. I'm using a wireless connection that is only a few feet from my computer. (my own network) The web moves slow on both safari and firefox. Google taking long to load up, a google search loading slowly, facebook taking a couple of minutes. My girlfriend used the same wireless network on her Dell Vostro laptop using internet explorer and it moves lighting fast. (The internet connection is cable high speed 7.5 mbps).
View 2 Replies View RelatedOS X :: Slow Internet Using DNS Or OpenDNS
Nov 2, 2009I'm absolutely struggling with getting a decent connection speed on my mac. This started happening a few weeks ago and haven't been able to get it sorted after many hours of searching, restarting, recreating connections, etc. There are three computers in the house. 1 PC, 2 Macs.
The PC and the older Mac 1.3 have no problem with connection speed, getting 5Mb/s downloads ans 0.75Mb/s uploads. The other mac is 10.5 with all the updates. It is currently getting 0.28Mb/s Download and 0.66Mb/s Upload. I've the OpenDNS or 4.2.2.x entries in the DNS, and that hasn't fixed the problem.
The older mac does not use these entries and it still connects fine. Strangely, Skype works with full video and no issues with connectivity, which makes me think that some ports are able to get more than the 0.28Mb/s download, as I doubt I would get Skype video at such slow speeds. I've tried FF and Safari, both crazy slow. I don't have access to the WiFi base-station, but clearly it is working fine because both of my other computers are connecting to the internet without a problem. I'm running out of options, and there is no Mac store within 200 miles of where I live.
Software :: Very Slow Internet?
May 3, 2008I have a G5 iMac, v10.4.11, that is connected via ethernet cable to the internet and my workplace's server. Trying to browse webpages is very slow, taking 10+ seconds in Firefox for the page to even do anything, ex. searching on Google. The same internet connection works very quickly on my PC.
I've tried switching ethernet cables with the PC and Mac - no change; PC internet is quick, Mac is slow.
Tried repairing disk permissions - no change.
I've unchecked "Automatic Proxy Configuration" in the Network settings - no change.
I've released and renewed the IP address - no change.
I've traced the route on Mac and PC - the route is the same.
I've turned off the Airport in case it might be interfering with the cable connection - no change.
I've run out of ideas! What could be the problem, and how can I fix it? An IT person suggested reformatting it - I'd really rather not format the whole computer.
MacBook Pro :: It Has Slow Internet?

I don't even know where to begin in regards to fixing this and I'm hoping someone can help shed some light. This is really frustrating.I'll call Apple if need be but I wanted to ask you guys first because I know Apple will say it's my ISP and my ISP will say it's Apple.

MacBook Pro :: Unbearably Slow Internet (OS X Only)
Nov 19, 2010About a week ago I started having unbearably slow internet on a Mid 2009 MacBook Pro. The problem occurs on both wired and wireless connections. The problem occurs in Safari, FireFox, and Chrome. The browser stalls at the "connecting" phase of web page loading. Speed tests are not impacted. Sometimes it appears to load pages in "bursts". I have tried 3 changing the DNS and still have the problem. I have tried reinstalling OS X and still have the problem.
