Extreme lag problems

I have downloaded aperture last week and I have some major problems. I mean like it take like 5 min. to make simple edits. The program overall is very laggy !!!! I really need help because I edit a lot of photos. This have been happening even when i restart my computer and restart hte program and there is no updates avaibale. I was wondering if RAW could possibly be affecting the speeds but i have not taken alot of photos in RAW so i really dont know the problem.

My library has been switched over from iphoto two weeks ago.
Does your iPhoto library contain smart albums created in iPhoto? Then launch the Console.app from Applications > Utilities before you start Aperture and look, if you get diagnostic messages in the Console similar to this:
8/6/12 6:22:32.589 PM Aperture: [<RKAlbum 0x1240e7a20> valueForUndefinedKey:]: this class is not key value coding-compliant for the key minImageDate.
In that case it will help, to delete the iPhoto smart albums and to recreate them in Aperture, see this post by Alex Brown: Aperture 3.3.2 unresponsive if library contains old iPhoto albums - solution
If the smart albums are not the problem, try, if you can work with Aperture at all: Create a new, empty library, import some images and try to edit. Is Aperture still unresponsive?
To create an empty library launch Aperture with the options-key held down and select "other/new" from the panel.
If Aperture works well with a new library, use the First Aid Tools to repair the Aperture Library:

Extreme lag in CS5

I'm experiencing extreme lag while using photoshop lately. I'm running CS5 on a Mac OS X 10.5.8. My computer is about three years old but the hard drive was replaced about 6 months ago.
Basically what happens is that the program runs incredibly slow especially when opening files and saving files, no matter what the size. I have ample space on my hard drive and ps is not using the scratch disk for RAM or anything. I've also uninstalled or unchecked a variety of features that I don't use. This only started happening two days ago. I've installed all updates for Mac and PS but nothing has changed. I'm an art student so I'm using PS all the time, so it's become a real pain. Thanks for the help.

These two documents will help with plug-in problems:

Extreme Lag/Crash on New iPad iTunes App

when browsing the store, i get extreme lag on both page updating, touch ( when scrolling on screen, no response), and in a couple cases the iTunes App just flat out crashes to home screen
after waiting for a time it does show stuff, but missing alot of images/parts of page
like http://db.tt/lFpa2uvK
and
http://db.tt/wZYBbIa7
it does NOT do then when in the App Store, or any other app
crash logs show a couple Low Memory's with only "MobileStore " as largest process ( only app running )
as well as a couple crash's under " com.apple.Mobilestore failed to resume in time " and
MobileStore[282] has active assertions beyond permitted time

same with my iTouch 4
I have been getting many LowMemory and MobileStore crashes since 2012-04-29
I updated to iOS 5.1.1 today hoping it would fix the problem but it is just the same.
I have 2.3GB spare.
most problems seem to be with podcast pages with multiple entries.
mobileStore has been painfully slow since they added the DOWNLOADED symbols.
I had difficulty getting iTunes to see the iTouch, even after updating to the latest version (10.6.1.7)
since 5.1 I have normally had to stop and start apple services before seeing the iTouch in iTunes.

Pavilion 300-030 extreme lag

Experiencing extreme lags during simple operations like opening an email or opening up the Chrome browser. I upgraded my memory with a Crucial 8GB single DDR3 1600MT/s notebook memory and it shows in my system as 12.0GB. Is there something I am missing or doing wrong? Thanks in advance

Aloha Dean,Thank you for responding. I use an email client called Thunderbird by Mozilla and I have never had lag before with my tablet, home and work stations by for some reason the Pavilion 300-030 lags all the time. When I click on a different email or when I save an email to a folder the hourglass pops along with "Not responding" .Our internet at the office is decent and never had a problem with speed. Opening new pages sometimes take twice as long as normal.What do you think?John

Having lag problems on the XBOX 360 - connecting to WRT160N wireless router.

Having lag problems when playing on the XBOX 360(wireless connection) after we installed our new WRT160N wireless router. Looking for ideals on how to fix this performance problem?
Cable Conpany: Comcast
Modem Model: zoom
Wireless Router Model: Linksys WRT160N

A few more thoughts:
- Changing the channel settings does NOT achieve anything. I manually tried every setting with no success.
- Changing the encryption settings did not help. I tried "open", WEP and WPA and none of them work.
- Even when this problem shows up, the xbox360 wireless adapter successfully finds and associates with the wireless network. It even manages to read data from the network - it just does it VERY SLOWLY and disconnects often. This causes extreme lag in xbox live games, which shows up as unpredictable play and disconnects from games.
- The fact that G-only mode works fine pretty much proves that this problem can be fixed with a firmware change. The xbox360 wireless adapter and the WRT160N can definately talk to each other using 802.11g successfully so there must be some issue with negotiating the correct version of 802.11x.
- I've considered trying a third-party firmware, such as DD-WRT to see if this fixes the problem. Has anyone tried this and if so what happened?
If you are seeing this problem, please reply to this thread and say so. If enough people respond perhaps Linksys will fix the problem. Even if you're not registered with this board, registering is very quick and easy so don't let that deter you.
Thanks

Horrible video skip / lag problem - once per second in all apps!

I built a new system last month (my first AMD) and I am having a really aggravating problem. In all games and all video playback I get an annoying skip once per second, every second. It affects sound during gameplay but not during movie or mp3 playback. It even happens with the visualization mode in Windows Media Player.
My system is as follows: MSI K8N Neo4-F, A64 3200+ venice core, MSI 6800GT 256MB PCI-E, two sticks of Corsair valueselect DDR400 512MB each, 500 watt PS, 160GB 7200 SATA HDD. Most recent NVIDIA drivers for everything. WinXP Pro with SP2 and all updates, DX9C. Nothing overclocked, all settings standard.
I have tried the following solutions:
1) BIOS upgrades, started with 1.4, installed 1.5, MSI tech support gave me 1.6b2 and I installed that. No luck with any of them.
2) Memory, installed per MSI directions, but I've tried all legal combinations, including one stick at a time. No change.
3) full format and reinstall of WinXP. No luck.
4) Switching between WinXP IDE drivers and NVidia drivers, with and without RAID drivers, No luck.
5) Removal of 6800GT PCI-E card and replacing with Ancient 8MB PCI Permedia2 video card. Problem still persists.
6) Disable onboard sound and LAN. No luck.
7) Running Fedora core 4 on second partition. Installed Nvidia video drivers, tried some games. THIS WORKS! No hitch, no skip, no nothing. Framerates are noticably slower but very stable. In WinXP I saw framerates bounce all over the place, from 230 FPS down to about 70 with one game. That same game on Linux ran smoothly at about 166 FPS with only occasional slight drops. The big FPS drops in Windows usually came right after one of the skips but didn't occure after every skip.
Right now I'm stumped. Linux uses totally different drivers for sound, LAN and SATA support. Some of those drivers don't fully use the Nforce4 chipset's features, maybe that's part of the difference.

Thanks TireSmoke:
I had found that sticky, but I took your advice and went thorugh it in detail last night. Lots of great info, fixes tweaks and tools, sadly none of them fixed my problem. The lag problem most people are reporting is not really like the wierd problem I am having. I have tried the recoommended fixes with ablsolutely no change in my system's behavior.
I am beginning to suspect a faulty motherboard component.
Russ_XP:
I think you are correct about fast writes. I googled the heck out of that last night and couldn't find any reference to enabling or disabling fast writes on PCI-E.
The drive is SATA-1. The Neo4-F is not SATA-2 enabled (there is a hack for it though). From memory I think it's a Western Digital WD1600-something, 7200 RPM dirve. I've tried it on both SATA buses and tried disabling the unused bus in BIOS.
I'm pretty sure I can dig up an old PATA drive somewhere and give that a try.
Gpalmer:
True enough, and I don't have these problems under Fedora. Sadly this is a cross-platform game development box, I need both XP and Fedora working.
Black_God:
Nope, this is a clean install. Although I wonder, could any of the built in XP update and security tools be causing this? I have disabled Windows firewall and virus protection monitoring.

EXTREME lag after installing Windows 8.1 pro via / Bootcamp assistant

Hey guys, today I've literally been through **** trying to get this game working on my MacBook Pro.
I've basically gone out & bought Windows 8, created a partition on my hardrive (of my MacBook Pro) & installed it into that partition using Apples 'Bootcamp assistant'. After installing the operating system I also loaded the drivers which were given to me by Apples 'Bootcamp assistant'.
I now have the game on the Windows 8 (on my MacBook) which is a £2000 machine... I have got to the menu & experienced extreme lag to the point where I've even managed to turn down all my video settings & it is still lagging a lot despite my high-end computer hardware - here is my computer http://store.apple.c...B/A&step=config#
I have tried running the game on this website http://www.systemrequirementslab.com & everything is great but it says I don't have the required 512MB of video RAM... It says I have 256MB. This is complete ********? I believe I have 2GB of GDDR5 video RAM. It also says that my graphics card is called 'Microsoft Basic Display Adapter'. So I believe this is where the issue lies. My theory is for some reason one of the drivers which I have installed which was given to me by the Bootcamp assistant is messing with me.
This is literally all the information I can possibly provide, does anybody know how I could fix this?
Thanks you!

If the underlying hardware was exposed correctly by the CSM-BIOS when Windows was installed, your Device Manager should look like this.
If the Windows installer did not see any devices as your screen indicates, Windows will use generic software-based drivers which will be very slow and painful.
Rudegar ... I think the Windows installer did not see any hardware, otherwise there should be HW with yellow triangles with exclamation marks.

Lag problem with JFileChooser

I have searched the archives and haven't found any useful information regarding the fact that creating a JFileChooser lags horribly on some systems...namely mine. I have tried running my own program and the FileChooserDemo on java versions 1.4.1_02, 1.4.1_06, 1.4.2_01-b06, and 1.5.0 beta and all of them have the INCREDIBLY slow lagging problem. I am running Win XP pro P3 800 386MB and it takes over 40 seconds to load the chooser. I have disabled all anti-virus software to no avail. I have run my program on a computer at my college which runs Win XP also and there it runs fine...so I am at a complete loss as to what could be wrong. If anyone has any insight into this problem please let me know!
thanks

Yeah...they talk a lot about theories of what the problem may be, but only offer a few solutions...none of which have helped me (loading the JFileChooser when app starts, and stopping anti-virus software). Thanks though.

Just installed iOS7 on iPhone 4. Huge typing lag problem now. Any fixes? Apple please fix asap.

I just installed iOS7 on my new iPhone 4. Huge typing lag problem now. Any fixes out there? How do I uninstall this update. The phone worked better without it. Don't even like the new layout and icon design.
Apple, please fix this now!!!

Try a Restart.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your settings
You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

I've been considering the Yosemite upgrade but especially after reading some of blue tooth lag problems, I'm wondering how to be able to go back to mountain lion.

i have been considering upgrading to Yosemite from Mountain Lion but especially after reading about some of the bluetooth lag problems, i would want to be able to return to my current OS, just in case and am unsure what steps to take.

Drive Partition and Format
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
To clone your existing system:
Clone Yosemite, Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion using Restore Option of Disk Utility
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
     1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu then press the Continue
         button.
     2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
     3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
     4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it
         to the Destination entry field.
     5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
         the Source entry field.
     6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.

Preview lag problem on Premiere Pro CC 2014

Hi everything!
I have a big problem on Premiere, when I work on every type of file the Program monitor lag too much.
I can see one frame every few second!
But the audio work well...
It seems that the computer have not enough power to show the video! And I have not modified or applied effect or transition!
I have got a MacBook Pro Early 2011 with the AMD Radeon HD 6750M (1024 MB) with the OpenCL 1.2 Engine, 2,2 GHz Intel Core i7-2720QM Quad Core (With Multithreading to 8 Core), 16 GB 1666 MHz RAM, with a Magnetic Disc (No SSD). The Machintosh is equipped by OS X Yosemite, reinstalled last week to try to fix the problem.
Before installing the CC 2014 I used the CS6 for 2 years without problem.
In Project Settings i have active the Mercury Playback Engine, and the other settings are not changed!
Someone had the same problem? Or know how to resolve? Because is not easy to use in this condition!
Thank you very much, Andrea.

Hi!
Thank you for the answer!
My source footage is 1080 50p AVCHD (from Panasonic AC-AG160AEJ), but the problem is on every type of footage, because I tried with a 720 50p from a Canon EOS 6D and the ProRes 422 1080 25p of BlackMagic Production Camera 4K.
The problem doesn't change with the weight of the footage, with all of the footage type the problem is the same.
I use the original 7200rpm 750GB hard disk connected with the SATA interface. I think that is SATA 3 at 6 Gbit/s.
I have tried with all playback resolution possible (Full, 1/4 and 1/8) but the problem doesn't change, even if I change the resolution.
Unfortunately with the format of last week I lost the CS6...
I'm writing from Italy and I use the PAL standard!
I attach a video of the problem and a picture of my graphic card, if they are usefull!

Lag problem in CC and CC 2014

What zoom level are you brushing at and what kind of brush are you using. I find a lot of lag when the document has a large number of pixels and you zoom out like fit on screen. Additional lag introduced when wet mixer brush are used a large tip size increase the lag even more.
Remember Photoshop was designed to be an image editor. Paint is a nice addition but not Photoshop main gold. If you want to paint I'm sure a program designed to be a paint program would perform better and have more painters features. A paint pint program may paint on the scaled down image and apply the paint to the large document in the background where is look like Photoshop Paint on the large document layer then scale the results down to the zoom out view for there is no lag in Photoshop when you paint at the 100% or higher view.

Extreme lag during song deletion

I am getting some extreme lag, (a few minutes for each song) when I delete music in iTunes.
I've read up on it a bit, and I'm thinking it's because of my library size - which is about 15,000 songs after adding all of my older music - now totals about 82GB. I've restarted iTunes, rebooted, and checked most everything. I don't know what else to do, iTunes is becoming almost unusable; even other small operations are slower than ever.
I just wanna know if there's anything I could try, or if it's just a fault on iTunes's part.
S'never happened to me before.
Thanks in advance.

A couple of thoughts, you quite a large library which is always going to be a bit slower than a small one. Is it on an external drive or network that might be slowing things down. This is particularly and issue if the library database files themselves are on the external resource.
Do you have a lot of smart playlists with live updating, that can be a significant overhead.
The other thing I wonder about is virus checking, it might be worth briefly disabling virus checking to see if that makes a difference. If it does try excluding iTunes Library.itl and iTunes Music Library.xml from virus checking They are in your iTunes folder in Music.

EXTREME LAG after latest update, unable to playback.

I've been rocking on Premiere CC for many months and ran the latest update on my way out of the studio Friday, coming in today on Monday I am unable to even edit anything due to extreme lag. I press play on a timeline and then it may be minutes before I get control of Premiere again and I see a frame every 15secs. All other apps run fine. What could be the issue and how can I fix it ASAP?

Apparently this is the issue I am running into. http://forums.adobe.com/message/5931221
I am dropping back to 7.1 for now until I can figure out what else to do, not that this was a major update that I'm missing out on much.
