• Why my application download speed is so slow

  Update of my application and download speed is so slow so even a 50 MB app take me about half an hour to complete the update

  There are many factors that could affect this speed Wi - Fi or cellular, servers, etc.. If you were to explain in more detail, we might be able to help.

• All good programs/applications to speed up my mac?

  Ive had my macbook pro for 4 years now and its always a great. Recently its been running terrible, constantly loading and interrupt and loading. This happens on the internet and even with my iTunes. Its now got to the point where I can use my mac without extremely frustrated yet. Something that lasts 20 seconds, takes about 15 minutes. My Os x is up to date and my hard drive is clean enough. Is it that I can do to speed up towards the top/fix my mac?

  Applications 'Performance improvement' cause frequently more harm than good. Unless you have a problem or particular target performance bottleneck, I would stay there.

  I would say running a utility of diagnosis such as the EtreCheck first. Even if is not identifying the cause, it would eliminate the usual suspects.

  Edit: The 'usual suspects' in my book.

  (1) insufficient RAM. Better resolved by adding more RAM if possible, sometimes established by a management of RAM under the old OSs utility.

  (2) incorrect RAM. Better resolved by reinstalling original.

  (3) undesirable background processes as guardian of Mac. Better solved by uninstalling applications 'performance improvement '.

  (4) file/user cache corruption. Usually a specific application slowdown. Correction to empty the memory cache manually or by reliable utility.

  (5) the corruption of system files. Fixed by the clean OS reinstall. First backup.

  (6) drive hard failure. Fixed by reformatting or replacing hard drive. First backup.

• Internet provider DOWNLOAD speed vs Airport Extreme

  Hello

  I had download speeds slow on my Airport Extreme for ipad, iPhone and imac.

  I have a modem connected via Ethernet cable to an ac Airport Extreme 802.11 Optimum.

  Ran to the application of speed test on my ipad II (within 5 feet of the airport).

  The results showed that the download is only 2.12mbps and upload is 24.97mbps. I pay for the 50mbps service.

  I tried the same thing by using a new iPhone SE and timed to 22,93 download and upload to 23.95. A little better but still not enough good.

  I contacted Optimum and they ran a couple of tests showing that my modem is online, signals are ideal, there is no loss of data to the modem and there is no failure in the region.

  They recommended connect a laptop directly to the router and without going through the airport. Will try it tonight to see the results.

  Assuming that the connection of the cable between the modem and the laptop is fast, what I can do to improve the speed of the WiFi?

  There is something to put in place at the airport? I guess there will be a reduction in speed between wired devices and WiFi but not this bad. What is the maximum number of devices (iphones, ipads or imacs) airport can support? I have at least 6 or more WiFi sharing schemes and wonder if this is the problem.

  Thank you

  Bob

  Please read using the Diagnostics wireless for you help to solve the problems of Wi-Fi on your Mac - Apple Support.

  What is the maximum number of devices (iphones, ipads or imacs) airport can support?

  Apple recommends 50. I got that three dozen sharing an Apple base station AirPort simultaneously with no noticeable performance degradation.

  The factor limiting the bandwidth will be the most restrictive of what follows, in no particular order:

  • your ISP
  • your local wireless environment, including other interference and competing wireless networks
  • the performance of the client machine
  • out of your control network conditions

  Your AEBS will not limit the bandwidth, but if you have reason to believe that it is, a "hard reset" is the only possible troubleshooting step. On rare occasions, an internal parameter becomes corrupted and this is the only way to fix it. By 'rare', I mean "almost never" and the last thing you should consider, after rule out all other possible causes of poor wireless performance.

• Power PC speed legitimate? Is this software legitimate or not?

  My boss has found an application called speed of Power PC running on his computer. I found a post of this forum ask questions if this software is virus/malware or not. There was a response, but he spoke only removing and never answered the original question. I worry because there is a web site for this company on the web site, it shows the company as being a Microsoft partner. So the question is... Is this software legitimate or not?  Thank you

  I suspect that this is not the virus, but it is also useless.

• Why is not possible to upgrade to Sierra?

  My original Mac Pro OS was Mavericks or Mountain Lion.  Mac Pro is end of 2013 current version, 12 GB memory, Yosemite (10.10.5) with Windows XP (SP3) within the 10 version of Parallels.  At Yosemite's original operating system upgrade went well.  A year earlier, when you try to upgrade to El Capitan, download and installation is complete but resulting Mac Pro has been completely non-functional.  Technical assistance from Apple then able to help access Time Machine and restore it on a working machine.  Apple technology has theorized that the problem may have been caused by the Norton Antivirus program running in the Apple environment (which was then deleted).  Two days ago tried to upgrade OS Yosemite Sierra.  Similar result as we have.  Power on the Mac Pro seems to be running with Sierra.  In configuration iCloud and other applications, the environment has hung up and the machine had to be restarted.  Turned on, the Apple logo appears along with the sound chime.  Nothing else.  Same sequence repeated constantly.  Apple support was able to help (with some difficulty - keyboard randomly not responding) to get pressure on power-up/alt keys to work and generate a recovery screen.  Backup Recovery Time machine produces a work, an original machine of Yosemite.  Question - what needs to be done to have a Mac Pro expandable to Sierra?

  First of all, you must make sure that all applications and hardware drivers are

  up-to-date and compatible with macOS Sierra.

  If you run any Antivirus application, applications assistance, speed up the apps, haxies,

  cleaner for apps, or anything else that claims to improve performance, remove them

  by directions of app developers.

  If you do, download and run Etrecheck (http://www.etrecheck.com/).  It's a

  application developed by one of the contributors here and can give us additional info

  about what can be potential problems.

  In addition, if you encounter any problems at all now, no matter the size, they get usually

  greatly amplified with any upgrade of the OS.

• Hyper-V slow network

  Dell PowerEdge T420, Windows Server 2008 R2 with Hyper-V installed and one configuration of virtual machine 2008 R2 in the Hyper-V environment. Two network cards on the T420 are connected to the same Gigabit switch, one for the use of the physical machine and the other for the virtual network.

  The only thing that is made in the virtual machine of desktop Services remotely, then end users into running a program of medical records that accesses a database on completely separate server. The physical server just Hyper-V, a domain controller and DNS.

  With no activity, ping'ing the prompt of the physical machine or vice versa or a separate database of the guest PC server, we have less than 1 ms response time. However, if there is no activity in the guest OS, ping times vary drastically - between 1 and ms 200 ms.

  I have different power cuts disabled virtual network adapters properties, but this does not seem to make a difference. Looking at the monitor of resources on the VMS, there is generally less than 5% of the CPU and 10 percent of the memory used, and the network traffic when the application is running is less than 100 Kbps (usually less than 50 Kbps).

  On the physical server, the CPU traffic & network are basically the same as the virtual machine, with 80 percent of the memory used (since it is all attributed to Hyper-V).

  Any thoughts on how to solve the slow networking?

  Thanks in advance!

  The solution to the problem is revealed to be...

  Broadcom NICs in Dell servers have a "Tails of Virtual Machine" which is by default enabled setting. Once disabled, the guest operating system has the same network as the physical machine speed.

• Poor performance of MSSQL after P2V

  I'm kinda new for ESX and had an experienced friend help me get our san/Server combo upward and running recently.  Here is what we have and what we have done.

  2 x Dell R900.  4 x processors hexagonal core, 128 GB of RAM, 2 x 73 GB mirrored drives.

  EqualLogic SAN with 16 x 1 TB SATA disks.  Connected via iSCSI using two QLogic in each server and 2 Force10 S25 Gigabit spend together 1000 full duplex with 9000 MTU.  The SAN is a unique RAID50 with 2 drives hot spares.  2 VMFS stores have been created at 1 to each.  The servers have been balanced through them based on the size and activity.  We also have the SAN for snapshot for servers 3 times per day (coming soon)

  We have 7 servers running through both of them.

  2 x Terminal servers

  1 x Exchange Server

  1 x database server (MSSQL)

  1 x telephone system server

  2 x domain controllers

  Everything worked quite well overall.  Exchange seems a little slower, but our SQL application has lost about 40% on performance.  Nothing seems to be dubbed red but SQL queries are simply much more slow.  Users complain of the app freezing when others are running big reports and other.  I read up on best practices for SQL in ESX, but I find a lot of misinformation and contradiction.  Someone here went through the same problem and found a solid solution to increase performance?  Any advice would be helpful.  Also, keep in mind that I am a VM noob at this point, so all articles with instructions would be great.  Thank you.

  I'll try and sum up what I believe to be the more important points to look at:

  • VSphere upgrade and use the new SCSI and ParaVirtualised NIC adapters that should significantly improve iSCSI performance.

  • Create the virtual computer from scratch - this vdisk in the BONE is aligned partition (create partition using diskpart)

  • Use SMP VM and plenty of RAM (at least 4 GB) to ensure that the multiprocessor HAL is used

  • Enable extended frames (9000) on all the components in the I/O path (JF are now fully supported in ESX 4)

  • Create LUNS on the SAN for system DB (including Tempdb), users of the DB and logs and present them using the MS initiator iSCSI in virtual machine.

  • Format the LUNS with the NTFS using a greater than the default Allocation size (try as large as 64 K)

  • Use stackable switches optimized for iSCSI if possible (Cisco 3750-G or equivalent). Create a group ether-channel with ports of each switch to global link for iSCSI in virtual machine speed (also gives fault in case of switch failure tolerance). It should be but of a second vNic in the virtual machine on a computer PortGroup virtual set to "Load balancing based on IP hash" (rising multiple in the vSwitch must be connected to the port channel Port on the switches.

• If the SAN is supported, attend the virtual machine over several paths of I/O (to different controllers) - create a vSwitch separated with the same configuration as above - configure VMware with 2 vNIC iSCSI and MS iSCSI initiator using multiple addresses to target and use the iSCSI LUN (MPIO for failover or MCS (multiple connections for load balancing) works best when each iSCSI NIC is on a different subnet VLANS / IP)

• Use FC drives in the SAN where possible, SAS are better next, then the SATA that should be avoided for transactional i/o applications.

• Use batteries as much as possible - more young readers work better than the disks of greater and less

I had great success virtualize disk applications on VMware, especially in the more recent additions (vShere in particular) If you use as many of the recommendations that precede as poosible. IOmeter use to measure disk performance from a physical server using MS iSCSI initiator connected to the LUN. Connect the LUNS to a VMware VM and repeat tests. There should be no reason why you shouldn't be able to get results within 15% of the physical server.

To troubleshoot VMware network speeds, download iPerf.exe and use the client on the VM and the server on a physical server. Test different combinations of frame sizes to ensure the maximum transfer speed.

Make good grades so that you build a picture of what works and what does not work.

I hope this helps!

• Some macbook fans do not work?

  I noticed that when the macbook gets hot and the fans come into action, air only fate of the far right below the screen and no more than all the cracks. It is possible that some fans have stopped working?

  To check, you can run Apple Hardware Test:

  Note that an error free AHT is inconclusive.

  Some applications of speed of fan/temperature also indicates if a fan is defective.

• Covered wagon with an average of analog voltages DAQmx

  I searched through screws, I can't seem to find something that will automatically average numbers of boxcar fed into it. I am trying to create a feature of my software that will allow the dynamic configuration of the car covered with an average of some inputs. I would like to avoid hard-coding tables which are filled/rotation etc etc.. Any help is appreciated

  Thank you

  If you use a Functional Global to store the values and call that VI of two different screws, you will access the same data. You could use two Global in the functional shift registers and use a selector to place / extract data from / to the appropriate shift register. Only VI call access one commune VI at the time, so one of the caller of the screw will be 'blocked' until the first caller is done. This does not usually work for data acquisition applications high speed.

  You might consider using named queues instead of functioning overall. You might be interested in this thread on the forums of LAVA that deals with boxcar implimentations. You create a queue for each data stream and can perform functions such as "preview" queue to get all items without actually removing them from the queue. If you use a LabVIEW 8.6, there is a new feature called with loss of queues. You set an upper limit on the size of the queue and "lossy enqueue" allows to add items at the end of the queue. If the queue fills up, then the oldest data element will be lost.

• record data in the Spartan 3rd text

  Hi all

  I would like to kindly save the data table text file or a spreadsheet on vi using fpga spartan 3e as an fpga target. Once I added any function related to the file operation, he gave error that these functions are not supported by the target device.

  could you please help me with this

  Thank you

  Rania

  Hi David,

  Usually when using a FPGA target we want to assure you that we treat the data as efficiently as possible. In this spirit, we will be desirable to use a DMA FIFO to stream to our host VI. After the data is transferred to our host VI we can save the data to a text file using the functions in the file e/s palette. This is a very useful part of the help of the LabVIEW FPGA module, which deals with transfer data between devices or Structures using FIFOs.

  I also wanted to make sure that I provide you with our white book using DMA FIFO to develop some Applications High-Speed Data Acquisition for Reconfigurable i/o devices that guides you through the features, you need to implement on the FPGA VI and host VI. I hope this information helps.

  For more information, what equipment you use also and is your host, a Windows operating system or an operating system in real-time as well?

• HP Pavilion 500-426nc: constant frost of HP Pavilion 500-426nc after the installation of the anti-virus

  Hello, everyone, I really hope someone will give me a few minutes to address this point.

  I started today with the installer of my new PC, a HP Pavilion 500 - 426nc AMD A10-7800 with Windows OS 8.1.

  Everything went well and I was enjoying my new machine speed.

  So I decided to install ESET Nod 32 antivirus. And since then, nothing I can do with my PC: it does not react to my orders, programs will not open and I can't turn it off even properly.

  I read the internet and realized, that I have installed McAfee (or at least a trial version of it) and maybe that's the problem. I wanted to uninstall McAfee, but I don't know how to do it, because my computer does not respond to what I want it to do!

  A few tips on how to get out of this frustrating situation, please?

  I thank very you much for any help.

  Hello:

  First of all, try to get in windows safe mode and uninstall the A / V software that you have installed.

  Enter the mode safe mode with W8.1 is a bit difficult to start the PC, so please read the news to find out how to enter WSM.

  http://www.howtogeek.com/107511/how-to-boot-into-safe-mode-on-Windows-8-the-easy-way/

  Now, if you can get into safe mode, and you can uninstall the A / V software you have installed through the control panel > programs menu, restart your machine and see if it is OK.

  If so, read these instructions on how to safely remove any McAfee software.

  http://service.McAfee.com/FAQDocument.aspx?ID=TS101331

  Finally... my 2 cents on the antivirus programs... why not just use the free A / V software (Windows Defender) that comes with W8.1?

  You will need to turn it on by reading the info on the link below after uninstalling all installed previously 3rd part A / v software

  http://www.fixedbyvonnie.com/2013/10/how-to-turn-on-Windows-Defender-in-Windows-8-1/
