  • Facebook (entire site) runs extremely slow in Firefox.

    This does not happen with all the other Web sites. It is extremely slow-scrolling, loading of pages, etc., and each time I have a Facebook tab is open, it slows down the whole browser. The browser returns to normal speed once the Facebook tabs are closed. The worst thing is when I type a message or comment on Facebook - specific messages - he's so bad that I have to stop and wait for the characters to catch up to me, sometimes for several minutes just finish one sentence until I can move my real typing speed. It makes it extremely difficult to use as a communication tool and I don't know what to do about this.

    I had this problem (Linux though). Disabling the extension DownloadHelper solved it for me.

  • Extremely slow printing wireless with HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m

    I see extremely slow print speeds when printing from a Mac or a Windows XP system on a new printer HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m wireless. The printer starts printing immediately when I request a print, but it only prints one line. It will take about 15 minutes then to print the rest of the page, each print after a very long break line. Print demo page doesn't exhibit this problem, only documents of programs such as Word 2008, Safari, and Firefox (I tried firefox on PC and Mac) are affected.

    If I connect to the printer via a USB connection it prints very well, so this problem seems to be the only wireless printing.

    Printer: HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m
    Computer: Mac mini (late 2009 model) (also tried a Windows XP laptop, by comparison using the latest drivers from the HP website)
    OS: Mac OS X 10.6.2 with all available updates installed
    Method of connection: cable Ethernet connection to the router wireless
    Printer drivers: version 2.2.1 (Apple provided, drivers HP never installed as system comes with 10.6)
    Wireless router: Apple TimeCapsule (early 2009) 1 TB, honing a/d and modes of b/g on 2.4 and 5 GHz. TimeCapsule is in transition as the DSL modem handles DHCP service mode
    Encryption: WPA2 Personal, no MAC filtering or hide the SSID.

    IP addressing scheme: all addresses are distributed by the server DHCP without reservation of any kind

    The TimeCapsule is sitting three inches from the printer and the printer indicates the complete signal. Connecting the printer to the wireless network and setup of the printer on the Mac went off without a hitch. Only when you print a test document discover us the problem. The wireless network will behave as expected when you access Internet from Mac and Windows devices (tested with a laptop computer Dell XP and a MacBook with OS X 10.6.2), so I don't see any problem with the wireless network together.

    Attempt to use:
    1 reboot and power off, wait, restart the computer
    2 reset the print subsystem, the printer off and on again and reinstall the printer

    3. disconnect the power to the printer and let it sit for several minutes before trying to print wireless.

    None of them worked.

    I don't know exactly what is happening... I'll have to think about.

    Looks like you're running with the current configuration.

    Can we call this resolved?
