Ooops forgot about iPhoto being slow Mac.

Back up and try rebuilding the database. Hold down the apple and option (alt) keys while launching iPhoto.

If that fails, launch Activity Monitor and watch for other processes using the cpu as you work.

Hi Mac,

Try putting in Westnet's DNS servers.

Somewhere along the line your DNS address(s) became deleted from the network System Preferences for your 'active' connection (e.g Airport).
It probably was set to default to your local (home) router.

This basically means that safari can not find the web site you attempt to load, so it waits for a very long time.

You can add in the DNS address(s) by going to System Preferences / Network and selecting your active network connection / DNS tab.

WestNet DNS servers are:
Primary:   203.21.20.20
Secondary: 203.10.1.9

Cheers,

I recently installed Leopard and now when I go onto the net it is so slow it grows IcIcles while you wait for a url to come up. The url goes blue about 4 or 5 letters across then you wait and wait and wait, eventually it comes through. The download speed checks out at 1350 kb/s (Speedtest.net) so I do not think the problem lies there. I am sure it lies somewhere in my laptop but I do not know where to look. Incidently iPhoto is also glacial. It all seems to have happened since installing Leopard. I did a complete wipe of the disk and a fresh install of Leopard and thought i Would be 'sweet' :-(

Can someone tell me where to look?
