Start up time

Hello:
There are times when I am starting up Aperture where it takes about 5 seconds for the images to appear, and then there are times when it takes in excess of 20 seconds. As far as I can tell, it is not a function of the number of other applications open, or other possible "distractions". Anybody else having the same experience and/or have an explanation/fix for this behavior?
Thanks,
Dex

Hello:
First, thanks for the input. I have kept working with Aperture, and there seems to be a trend as to when it starts up fast vs. times its start up time is slow.
The Activity monitor is not showing much of anything before or after I start up Aperture. Of course, Activity goes up a bit while Aperture is starting.
After opening Aperture, if I go ahead and just immediately shut it down (I don't even "leave" the project in which I found it when the program started), the next time I start the program it loads up in a matter of about 5 seconds. It does not matter whether the program is in preview mode or not.
If instead, I move around in Aperture before shutting it down, then the next time I start up the program, it will take at least 20 seconds before the start up process is finished.
These are my observation at the moment. I don't know if anybody else is having the same experience, but if you are and can shed some light on the matter, I would certainly appreciate it.
Also, am I being a bit picky. Based on my configuration, is it normal for Aperture to take 20 sec plus to load up (I have about 7000 pictures in the library)? I know photoshop/elements takes a while
Thanks in advance,
Dex

Macbook pro (2012) was swapped for a new one and my empty hard rive was swapped, but now my start up time has doubled?

I bought a Macbook 2 weeks ago, in the first week one of the keys broke off so I went to the Apple store and they replaced the whole thing for me. I was asked if I wanted to swap the hard drive for my old one and I said yes just to save myself time, even though my hardrive is completely empty- I havent downloaded any programs, saved any pictures etc.
Now my start up time on this new Macbook has pretty much doubled - its a blank lit-up screen for a long time before the apple and log in bar appears - has any one else had this problem? This didn't happen on my old one!

first - go to system preferences - startup disk and select your hard drive as the startup drive....restart your macbook....
if that doesn't do it, open disk utility and verify your disk permissions - repair them if errors are found....once the repair is done, restart your macbook...
see if the above sorts outs your issues....
good luck

How do I change the start/stop time for multiple songs not just one song at a time?

How do I chnage the start/stop time for multiple songs not just one song at a time?

I don't think you can in iTunes.
Multiple editing in Get Info does not offer an option to change start/stop times.

So i just got an 3T external hard drive and i have moved my itunes over to it successfully and have started using Time Capsule but is there a way to make things i download go directly to my external hard drive and not to my internal one?

i just got a 3T external hard drive and i have moved my iTunes over to it and i have started using time capsule but when i download things can i make the downloads go directly to my external hard drive? Or make my mac ask me where it should download it to?

just change the preferecnes for whatever app you're using to download the files to the external drive

How to Get Duration, Start/Stop Time of Each Instance (Run)

Can someone tell me how to get the Duration, as well as Execution Start/Stop times for a given run (Instance) of a Report, stored in History?
For example, on the BO Server in InfoView, I can browse the History of each report, and for each run, I can click the details and view the Duration and Start/Stop times for that run. How do I get that information in Java via the SDK?
Neither IProcessInfo nor ISchedulingInfo seems to have this information.
For example, ISchedulingInfo's Start/Stop Times are for general scheduling (when the report will stop being scheduled). That is not what I want.
I need specific data for a given completed Run, namely its duration and time endpoints. Thanks a lot.

Hi,
fetch the instance of the run like this
IInfoObjects list = infoStore.query(
"select SI_STARTTIME , SI_ENDTIME From CI_INFOOBJECTS Where SI_ID=<instanceIDtoMeasure>"
IInfoObject element = list.get(0);
Date startTime = element.properties().getDate("SI_STARTTIME");
System.out.println("Beginn "+ startTime);
Date endTime = element.properties().getDate("SI_ENDTIME" );
System.out.println("End " + endTime);
long time = ((endTime.getTime() - startTime.getTime()) / 1000);
System.out..println("Runtime " + time + " sec");
You can get the nstanceIDtoMeasure form your Report with getInstances

Slow start-up time on iPad 4 after updating to iOS 7

I have just updated my iPad 4 from iOS 6 to iOS 7, and realized that it took much longer to switch off and back on than it used to be (at least double the time). Anyone have the same issue? How to make the start-up time faster? Thanks.

Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If no joy...
Reset all settings
Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.
This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings.
If the issue persists...
Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and Restore
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
Make sure you have the Latest Version of iTunes (v11) Installed on your computer
iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download

Also consider Deleting any Apps you have Purchased / Downloaded but you now never use.

IMac OS10.10 START UP TIME IS 45 SECONDS; IS THAT OK

Installed Yosemite on late 2013 iMac, and start up time is very slow; 45 seconds. Is this the norm?

If this continues:
Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
     Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
     COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities 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.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
4. Reinstall Yosemite: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall OS X from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
            because it is three times faster than wireless.
5. Reinstall Yosemite from Scratch:
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.

Contract Value Calulation based on Start & End Time

Hello Friends,
My client is into Vessel Hiring & the Vessels are given on hire for fixed period (with clear start & end dates & time).
For the above scenario we have a Periodic Contract to BIlling cycle which generates Invoices for every month. while creating the Contract we enter Basic Price as Day-Rate (Calculation type in Condition - O - Quantity - Daily Prices)
Thus the system automatically calculates the Basic Price Condition value based on number of days in any month.
Now the issue here is the client wants system to take Start & End time into consideration. In the Contract header - Contract Data tab we have developed two additional fields (Z-Fields) that capture start time & end time for every Contract.
So, we want system to calculate the Basic Price Condition value based on the Contract start date + Contract Start time.
Example :
1. Contract start date - 25.03.2010 & Start time = 12:00 noon. Basic Price = Rs. 10,000 per day.
2. In the Monthly Invoice, system would calcualte the Basic Price as Rs. 70,000 (7 days i.e. 25.03.2010 to 31.03.2010)
But here the client wants system to consider Start Time & determine Value as Rs. 65,000 as the Contract started on 12:00 noon on 25.03.2010.
Can anyone tell me how to achieve this?
I guess we should develop some routine (in VOFM) & apply it in Pricing Procedures.
But can some expert guide me on the logic of the routine & exactly where to apply the same in Pricing Procedure...
Thanks,
Jignesh Mehta

Hi,
Develop routine and make combination
if start date is xyz and start ime is less that 12 then price is so on so
if date start date is xyz and satrt time is more that 12 then price is so on so.
Hello I am not ABAPer, still tried to suggest you,don't mind for my suggestion

Calculate report execution start & end time (Not use SE30)

Dear all Abaper,
I am writing a report which recorded the execution start & end time
The following is a part of my coding.
Data : GV_ST_TIME LIKE SY-UZEIT. "START TIME
Data : GV_EN_TIME LIKE SY-UZEIT. "END TIME
START-OF-SELECTION.
GV_ST_TIME = SY-UZEIT.
END-OF-SELECTION.
GV_EN_TIME = SY-UZEIT.
WRITE: / 'START TIME:', GV_ST_TIME.
WRITE: / 'END TIME:', GV_EN_TIME.
Suppose the report has executed 5 second
from time : 00:00:00 to 00:00:05.
But in the output screen, the start time and end time always display the same time(00:00:05) if following the above coding.
However, if in the debugging mode, the start time and
end time will be different and really counted.
Does anyone know the reason and how to fix it if I don't wanna use SE30?
Thx in advance~

Hi boris,
1. minor problem
2. we have to REFRESH the time value
3. using GET TIME.
(Then it will work correctly)
4.
START-OF-SELECTION.
<b>GET TIME.</b>
GV_ST_TIME = SY-UZEIT.
END-OF-SELECTION.
<b>GET TIME.</b>
GV_EN_TIME = SY-UZEIT.
regards,
amit m.

Reduce/Eliminate the start up time for a batch job

I'm looking for ideas on how I might be able to modify either my jobs, workflow or data flow in an effort to reduce the "start up" time that I'm encountering.
Currently I have a batch job we execute several hundred times a day. One of the parameters we pass to this job is a file path. The data flow reads a flat text file in this file path, processes the data through several transforms, and writes a flat text file back into the file path.
The actual processing time varies with the number of records being processed -- as one would expect.
However, even for the smallest - single record - input file the job takes between 40 and 50 seconds to complete. If I watch the trace file during this time it appears that 95% of this time is spent getting ready to run the job. The actual processing is almost instantaneous.
Is there anything that I can look at changing in order to improve the overall performance of these jobs?
I should mention that I am aware of setting up real time jobs, and how they would not require this "start up" time for each job submitted. However this jobs we process could between 1 to 1,000,000 records. Passing that many records in a single web service call does not seem reasonable. I would deal with issue on the submission side and then the potential timeout issue when waiting on the response -- which could also be quite large.

Thanks Michael --
I must admit I'm a bit lost when it comes to the issue of codepages.
Is there any documentation you could refer me to with regard to setting the correct codepage for the data sources and targets?
Also, from the trace log I see the following statement:
Changed engine runtime locale <eng_us.cp1252> to <Unicode (UTF-16)> because data flow <DF_Suppression> contains a transform that requires processing with the Unicode (UTF-16) code page.
Other than the data source and data targets I do not see any option to set, or change, the codepage within any of transforms that I am using. (URAC, Name Cleanse, Query, Case, Match transforms are used)
Right now my source and targets are set to "default", which would seem to need to be changed. Where is the "default" set?
Sorry for so many questions about this.

Adjusting Start / End Time on Apple TV

Hello everyone,
In iTunes, we have the ability to adjust the Start / End time of a song or video by right-clicking the media > Get Info > Options. Then when we playback the media the next time, it will use the settings to determine how far into the media it should start and stop. Is there any way for these settings to get passed through to the AppleTV?
- Thanks

I would also like an answer to this! The original Apple TV applied the custom Start and Stop times, however the new one ignores them and plays the whole video file! Very annoying! Any solutions out there?

Norton anti-virus slows down the start up time in Windows Vista

Hi,
please help, i am being driven to distraction by the slow start up time of my laptop.
I've only had it for a few weeks and don't use it for anything beyond producing word documents etc.
It has gradually been getting slower on startup and i suspect it has something to do with the Norton anti-virus software on it and the updates for norton that i have downloaded (thinking that this was the right thing to do).
Looking at the problems and solutions log on the computer the date that it really started to slow down coincides with downloading a norton update, which i have been unable to uninstall to check if this really is the problem.
Further i have tried doing a System Restore, my laptop was not able to complete.
I am stuck on the DOS screen for 10 mins with the message:
PXE-E32 FTFP open timeout
I have no idea what this means but the Problems and Solutions log says something about a system hang?
I have looked on the web for other anti-virus software and they all seem to have one problem or another and slow computers down on startup.
Does anyone know of a solution or do i just have to make a cup of tea when i switch my computer on and lace it with vodka till it has booted up completely!
I am a novice when it comes to using computers so would welcome any non-technical advice.
thanks
laura

Hi guys
I would like to add some words about my experience using the Symantec Norton Antivirus software.
I have used this software 3 year long. It was great because it supports one of the best virus filtering options BUT it really slow downs the operating system.
I didnt use it on with Vista preinstalled notebook but on Win XP and I have to say that the notebook boot process was halted for about 30sec-1min till the whole parts of Norton Antivirus software has started It was very annoying
However, I switched to AntiVir. This is software described by marina4000 and Im really happy because the boot performance increased.
So finally I would also recommend removing this Symantec Norton Antivirus software and to switch to the other free AntiVir software ;)
Bye

Way to Erase All Start/Stop Time Data?

I used a DJ plugin called BPMer to load the BPMs into all my MP3s. It had an option "Optimize Start and Stop Times." This helps the program skip ambient intros of songs in order to beatmatch, mix and crossfade more efficiently. The only problem is that the information is retained under Get Info:Options:Start/Stop Times even if the plugin is turned off. It is stored in the ID3 info. I am wondering how to universally delete this information or reset it to default because I do not feel like going to every song individually to reset it (I'd have to do it about 6000 times). I tried selecting multiple songs, but the Start/Stop does not show up under Options when multiple tracks are selected.
Also don't suggest to re-run the BPMer program with the box unchecked for optimize start/stop times. I tried it. I figured out how to make BPMer not edit the times in the future, but it won't erase or overwrite the old start/stop info on tracks I already used it on.
Sort of a weird problem, but any ideas to save me from the nightmare of doing this individually 6000 times are greatly appreciated.

80-90 second start-up time on Macbook 2010.

I posted this question last week, but didnt get any real help.
I have a mid 2010 Macbook Pro 13 inch.
UPGRADED: 8 GB Ram and a 500 GB Hybrid Hard Drive.
Start up time for my Mac is 80-90 seconds, which is a bit longer then I expected after the upgrades. I already read of D's list of suggestions and performed all system checks that i felt were appropriate. My hard drive is less then half full and have no log in items.
Is there anyway to see of there is a program that's causing the slow start up? Please Advise.

If you did a fresh install of OS X and there is no annoying startup programs or network requirements (iCloud), minus the time you log in it should boot from bong to desktop in about 30 seconds on a standard 5,400 RPM hard drive, slightly faster for a 7,200 RPM and about 20 seconds for a SSD.
Given the bloat of 10.8+, add 5-10 more seconds to each of those times. So your boot times are certainly not normal.
Since it's a hybrid, it depends upon what data is in the SSD portion and how large the SSD portion is.
Perhaps the software or hardware mechanism for determining what frequently used data the hybrid is placing in the SSD portion is not working or can't work properly with OS X as it's designed to work with Windows.
Perhaps the hybrid drive is defective.
Far as I know, Apple doesn't support hybrid drives, outside of their "Fusion Drive" perhaps there is a conflict of some sort occuring.
There is a mile long thread here about Seagate Hybrid drive "disaster", perhaps you should take a look there.

Room Booking - unavailable if start / end time is :15 or :45

Hi all,
First apologies if this is in the wrong forum.
Due to the way our school day runs, we need to be able to book rooms from :15 and :45 (e.g. 10.15 to 11.15, 11.45 to 12.45).
You can change the start / end time manually but if you do the rooms do not show as available and the suggested times only work for :00 or :30.
Is there a way to change it so the rooms can be booked for a wider variety of times?
I've googled this endlessly and the only thing I can really find that might be applicable is changing the timeincrement but I think that only applies to the calendar view and the start / end time showing 15 minute increments instead of 30 as default but
does not have any impact on room availability.
Hopefully someone can help.
Thanks a lot

Hi Chris,
It is by design and we cannot change the time slot displaying. Your understanding would beappreciated.
Besided, it is recommended to add an End date for a recurrent meeting.
