Why download El Captain so very very slow

After a long time, I decided to download El Capitan.

Then I started to download in the App Store. I've been downloading now for 3 hours and I have 20 hours to go.

Is this normal?

BTW I looked in the netwerk as a question here before, and the settings are good. Another download is fast.

Make sure that your Mac meets the requirements to upgrade to El Capitan here > updated to OS X El Capitan

If she meets the requirements, the slow download time is most likely your internet connection speed.

Click here > http://www.speedtest.net

Then click on where you see;  Start the Test

If the download speed is less than 10 Mbps, you need to upgrade your internet service for a faster connection to El Capitan.

Download and install El Capitan must not have more than 45 minutes at a time on a connection high speed.

Keep in mind, with El Capitan installed, if you need fix the startup disk or restore of OS X, which requires OS X Recovery and which requires a connection high-speed broadband as well.

  • New laptop and download the applications is very slow

    Just bought the new laptop is stuck with win8 as the only thing available.  It took 2 days (11 hours) to open the account of ms to get to email.  Now he's just hanging.  Thought to download ms Pinball, game tried, after an hour, it was 8% done, stopped.  This is typical of access to anything on the net.  Pages that came in a second XP now take more than a minute to 8.  Everything is delayed.

    No I've not added anything, have not changed anything, have read the news and played cards.

    Features are so sensitive that happening sites and programs if I place my hand on the keyboard.

    It's horrible, I can get windows XP and remove windows 8?

    Is there a way to make it useful?

    HELP HELP

    Your question is not very clear.

    As long as you have internet connection, Microsoft Account opening should not take more than a few minutes and you can always connect to Windows 8 without Microsoft Account.

    For new PC, first you need to run Windows Update and install all updates. Even if the updates to day will install automatically, but you can do it yourself too.

    If your internet connection is not fast loading, it might be because update is ongoing enforcement and once installed all updates your PC would be quick. I'm not sure what you are referring to the sensitive features but it could be features provided by the manufacturer of your PC and not as in some Windows PC, you can use your mouse pad to open the start screen or scroll down.

    It is NOT recommended to install Windows XP because it is supported and you download the update or support for Windows XP more.

  • Very slow download speeds

    I just bought a macbook 12 "that I love. The only problem is I noticed very slow download speeds when downloading apps. I have also a 13 "macbook pro that I use on the same internet connection and downloads very quickly.  I have not tried to download any music or video yet, so I don't know if it's just a problem with applications, but it is ridiculously slow. It's a trait of these macbooks little, or something may be wrong?

    The guarantee gives the right to the free phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.

    If you bought the product in the United States directly from Apple (not a retailer), you have 14 days from the date of delivery where to Exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you purchased from a reseller, its return policy applies.

  • Given that downloading Firefox, my mouse is sticky and MSN games are hard to play and very slow to download. Any suggestions?

    I checked the system, apparently the mouse works fine. The games are very slow to download, and it is almost impossible to play because the mouse is so slow.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the start safe mode window or make changes.

    Try disabling hardware acceleration in Firefox.

  • Download of El Capitan post - my computer is very slow. Help.

    I have a Mac Mini mid 2011

    2.3 Ghz

    8Gb

    Recently, I downloaded El Capitan...

    Now my computer is very slow - trudging-

    Have seen several Beach - unprecedented balls - in my life.

    Have been read the tips of Apple Support Mess - you are looking for a simple solution.

    I have baby steps and delete cookies... organized files and photos...

    Nothing helps.

    When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is particularly bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.

    These must be run as administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.

    Run the Console application in one of the following ways:

    ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

    ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

    The title of the Console window should be all Messages. If it isn't, select

    SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ all Messages

    in the list of logs on the left. If you don't see this list, select

    List of newspapers seen ▹ display

    in the menu at the top of the screen bar.

    Each message in the journal begins with the date and time when it was entered. Highlight date back to the time you noted above.

    Select the messages entered since then until the end of the episode, or until they begin to repeat, whichever comes first.

    Copy messages to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command + V.

    The journal contains a large amount of information, almost all this is useless to solve any particular problem. When you post a journal excerpt, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.

    Please don't dump blindly thousands of lines in the journal in this discussion.

    Please do not post screenshots of log messages - text poster.

    Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

    When you post the journal excerpt, an error message may appear on the web page: "you include content in your post that is not allowed", or "the message contains invalid characters." It's a bug in the forum software. Thanks for posting the text on Pastebin, then post here a link to the page you created.

    I have an iPad mini version 9.02. a few months ago, I downloaded the latest operating system from Apple 8.1 and my iPad became very slow and glitchy especially in the e-mail software... What can I do?  Now it asks me to upgrade to iOS 9.1 and I fear that it will be even worse.

    Sorry - but what do you mean you have an iPad Mini version 9.02? What are your reference when citing 9.02?

    At this point, your best bet is to keep the device up to date. The latest version of iOS is 9.2. It's what you could be upgraded to.
