Lately the launcher throws alot of timeouts and takes a very long time to load. Running as admin helps at times, but still have to wait for all the packs to load before we can see our private pack.
Other players in my community are experiencing this as well and just want to play. I'm left with using the Technic launcher as it doesn't have this issue.

Using .exe on Win 7. Went through the troubleshooting step by step.
 
Been noticing this as well. Ever since the last update the launcher has been ridiculously slow to load. I'll just be looking at two blank white screens for nearly a minute before the console and modpacks show up.
 
Using the jar and getting the same thing...just assumed it was my computer....the launcher gets stuck on a white screen for a minute or so before it finally loads...though sometimes it will load instantly....also works the same with pack updates and downloads...with them taking awhile to start or timing out....

Tried running the it as administrator and it wouldn't even load....I think that is my set up though.
 
Just odd thing that happened with launcher today, steps i made:
- Start FTB launcher, i see the loading progress dialog at 0%. Still 0% after 15 mins of browsing websites.
- Seeing that it had no taskbar icon to easily close it, i just started FTB launcher again, and now it worked. But the new instance of launcher was using this same progress dialog, and this time it went to 80% and remained open.
- I closed the FTB launcher and dialog was still open.
- Shut down all java processes from Task manager, restarted FTB launcher and all was ok again.
