Hi Parham, This is a long-running behavior for some of us. Interestingly, you’ll find some VO Users who say they’ve never experienced the issue, but from past discussions I am pretty sure most of us have seen it happen to some extent. I’ve never heard a definitive explanation of why it happens, but here is what I know from past and current experiences.
1. The occasional “busy” message seems to be normal and is just telling you to wait a few seconds while a process completes. 2. In those cases where the “busy” message just won’t stop, I’ve had some success easing the pain by turning VO off and ON via the Command+F5 keystroke. Sometimes this stops the message and allows me to continue working, sometimes it does not. 3. For me, the issue used to be most evident in Safari but it has gradually improved over time with updates to the OS & Safari. What I often hear now is, “ninety percent loaded, ninety percent loaded, ninety percent loaded.” If you run into that one, a simple way to kill it is to press Command+. which stops the page load but in my experience does not cause any important data to be left behind. 5. When you are experiencing the issue in iTunes, it might be because iTunes uses Safari (or at least some part of Webkit) as the interface for the iTunes Store within the iTunes Mac App. This is nice in a way because you can use standard VO web navigation commands to find your way around the iTunes store, but it also seems to bring the annoying “busy” messages to iTunes when loading or navigating the store interface. 6. If / when you encounter the issue with specific third-party Apps, I would suggest contacting those Developers and describing the specific steps to follow to replicate the problem. As always, some Devs will be more helpful than others. When the Bento database app became crippled by this issue after an OS upgrade a while back, FileMaker, the Developers of Bento, did nothing to fix the problem. BTW, FileMaker has since stopped developing Bento altogether.
