Scanning takes forever

After update to Sierra, Photos is scanning through the 'people' in my pictures of 190 000 +.  According to some pictures of thousand, he finished on the first day, it could take eight weeks or more to complete the process.  It's crazy!

I have three problems with this:

1. There is no explanation as to why this process takes place.

2 there is no estimate on how long it will take.

3. from my estimate, it could take months.

Can someone please provide an explanation of what it is?

Thank you.

Me too. I love the Photos, but face detection is not something I want. Now here I am with my iMac scanning day and night. 26 000 scanned and 160,000 to go

I'll accept that, ultimately, I have more options in organizing my work. BUT! My MacBook Pro runs pretty hot to burn me and the battery drains fast!

All my photos are on external hard drives Thunderbolt and I hope that it won't take more than a week :/ What about people using hard drives slow? It's not really feasible. What constraint is applied to these hard drives with the excess heat of scanner and then time full connection once scanned?

    ·         What is the size of the file you are trying to attach?

    ·         It worked before?

    ·         What type of internet connection do you use?

    Step 1: Try to attach files that are smaller in size and check if it makes a difference.

    Step 2: Normally, when the images are fixed, he would go through an antivirus process. Then temporarily disable the security software and check if it makes a difference.

    Hi team - can - you advise me here on this point - we have Windows 7 premium and during the signing of the computer, (and we closed everything out, I believe) it takes forever to close... We get a message that says "it's a forced down in the back ground stop programs are 'always' being-execution, then after a few minutes, the computer stops..." Is this normal?  And also it takes for ever to get signed in...  What is happening with this?  Any help is greatly appreciated - many thanks - sincerely - Dave Knapp

  • Firefox 7 takes forever to load certain pages, or does not load completely, have markers from place to place and place images...

    Had the same problems with 6 Ff. 1/4 to 1/3 of the pages take forever to load. Sometimes I can make by highlighting the URL and pressing Enter. Sometimes the activity indicator turn right and pirouettes and page never loads. Mark-up appear sometimes where the images should be. Home of the New York Times, for example, partially supported (some missing images) but the links to take forever.

    Open the topic: config page through the address bar and do a search for network.http via the filter at the top of the about: config page.

    You can reset all network.http associated prefs which appear "BOLD" (user set) via the context menu to their default values.

    It is generally not a good idea to change these preferences, and these changes can have the opposite effect, by activating especially pipelining for servers that do not support this feature.

  • NB305 10F takes forever to start

    Hi all

    I have a brand new (two days!) NB305 10F Netbook and even it is a very nice piece of kit to mount on a half hour or so to start!

    I didn't do anything to this thing of the hook aopart up to my wireless home network and since then stop after that it simply does not work correctly. I tried to power off and re-boot in safe mode, but it still takes forever!

    What's up (Toshiba help line will get ' phoned later this afternoon!) and how do I back out of the box settings? Can I start and enter the BIOS with F2 or F8 magic or similar to reset everything?

    Any ideas would be most appreciated.

    Thank you.

    On each new Toshiba notebook is preinstalled original Toshiba recovery image. This recovery image contains many tools and utilities as well as additional applications. Most of them start by operating system and slows down the startup time.

    Please note: when you get the new book of Microsoft updates are set to auto so when you start your laptop and there is LAN or WLAN connotation your laptop will start to automatically download the updates and it will slow down the performance of any computer laptop.

    What you need is the optimization of the OS.

    My SSD on my Mac Book Pro got some corrupted files, and I had to replace it. I am trying to do a clean install of El Capitan and it takes forever. It was 10 hours so far, and the status bar is about 75%.

    I have a new SSD, the i5 CPU, the 8 GB of RAM and 1 Gbps Internet access speed. For those who take a long time for installation and operating system is simply ridiculous. I used to be an Apple fanboy...

    The download is a function of connection. Installation depends on your hardware. Your connection may be 1 Gbit/s, but read this while you wait...
