6.0.2 freezes when importing with canon 5d

Hi, I'm using The latest version of Iphoto 6.0.2 with an intel Mini. The computer locks up every time i try to import photos from my 5d. It always freezes about half way through the import. I've used different memory cards, a card reader, and even hooked it up to the USB port, it doesn't matter, it still freezes. The latest thing i tried was to delete the album.xml file and restart. That didn't do it either. The weird thing is that I have zero problems importing with my 20D. I can get around the problem by copying the photos to my Dell laptop, put them on a USB memory stick and then import them into iphoto with success. Any ideas? I have a feeling it has something to do with the canon software that i installed and then removed because i didn't like it. Could it be a conflict between i photo and the canon software? How do I make sure I remove all the canon crap?

Foxfile:
I don't think it's due top the software unless it's operating on the files as you import. Are you shooting RAW and the accompanying jpg? I've had zero experience with RAW but try the following:
1 - create a new, fresh library and then see if you can import into it. If not then it's an account issue. If the new library works then it's
2 - log into another account and see if the photos will work there. If so then it's your primary account that is having trouble.
Also check some of the options in the camera about file types, compatibility, etc. There may be something in there that can be changed so make them work. I'm guessing since I don't have a camera that shoots raw.

ITunes freezes when importing music from CD and also when playing,

Just recently iTunes has started to freeze when importing music from a CD - it just stops and the progress bar remains as it it. The whole mac then freezes and I get the spinning beachball. I can't use any other application. The same thing is happening when I play music - it's ok for a song or two and then freeze and the beachball appears. I've downloaded iTunes again and reinstalled and it's just the same. Using Safari and Mail etc is no problem at the moment.
I also have a problem getting the iMac to recognise external hard drives - it won't show them on either firewire 400 or 800. I can see my 1TB drive using usb ( it shows up on the desktop, whereas on firewire it doesn't do this) but if I try to open it and see the contents in finder, it opens, but doesn't dispaly the contents of the drive. I can see the disk size but just get a grey spinning wheel in the bottom right hand of the finder window. Timemachine does not work.

I have had the same problem & itunes crashes when i try to import a file. Now i can't even start itune. I've reinstalled itunes so many times, without a fix, I've lost count.
I did post and had no reply. I'll watch this post with interest.

After Effects freezes when working with footage which is just being rendered

After Effects freezes when working with footage which is just being rendered... this is a bug which was introduced with CS6 and I wonder if this is really so hard to fix. When you are working with footage from a 3d application which is just being rendered (in my case on a small farm via deadline) it has become impossible to work with After Effects. AE freezes for several minutes and only eventually returns to work. I suspect After Effects is reloading newly rendered frames in the background although I have disabled that in the preferences. With CS5 i can work on the frames already rendered without any problems. I filed a bug report about a year ago.
Greetings,
Daniel

If you don't have Service Pack 1 for Windows, you should get it. No guarantees, but it may help. For the moment, I'd just wait until the 3D renders are complete before importing... there isn't much else you can do at the moment, anyway.
There's only one application I've seen that can reliably, "works-every-time", read media files as they're recorded: Avid Newscutter...but then, it was created to do precisely that. AE wasn't.

Test runner freezing when used with Dynamics CRM (and other apps) - Both applications freeze and never come back...

We are trying to use test runner with dynamics CRM.
MS Dynamics CRM will freeze and will not respond (even after 10 - 15 minutes). When this happens, the test manager will either freeze or a message will apear saying "waiting for application under test".
We are not recording action recordings...This makes using test manager impossible. It happens consistently, starting with slowing the PC down (mouse moving slowly, slow to load in new screens, drop downs etc) eventually leading to the app freezing.
Tried on windows xp, windows 7 etc on various specs of pcs.

I am experiencing this same issue with
Test runner freezing when used with Dynamics CRM. I notice this was first posted in June of 2010 and so far no
resolution? I was wondering if it could be related to memory issues? Do you have any troubleshooting ideas? The
issue for me seems to be sporadic and I can't
reproduce it every time.
The message I get is "waiting on application under test".

When importing from Canon XL2, audio is delayed by 5 seconds

When I import from Canon XL2, the audio track is there, but it is off by a few seconds. At first it was only about 1 or 2 seconds, but when I re-imported it got worse. It's fine when I import through iMovie, but I lose my multiple audio tracks.
I know I can re align on the timeline, but that's not the point!
Thanks for help

You may have nearly filled up your hard disc.
1 hour of DV is about 13GB. Trying to capture a 2nd hour would take you up to about 26GB of space used up on your hard disc.
It's better to capture to an internal disc, or to a FireWire-connected external disc, as USB - even USB 2.0 - can't necessarily keep up with the constantly sustained data throughput speeds which DV needs.
A Mac needs about 10% of your total hard disc space to be empty, to allow for its internal 'housekeeping', log files, virtual memory files, etc. So if you have an 80GB internal disc, with, say, 13GB of operating system & programs, plus, say, 20GB of pictures, plus, say, 13GB of documents, and you add 13GB (1 hour's worth) of video, that's 59GB, and you'll need about 8GB of free space, that's 67GB accounted for, leaving about 13GB empty for your 2nd hour.
But that spare 13GB of spare space may be scattered around the disc, and not all in one sequential region, which may be why you're getting stuttering.
Not only that, but there may be 'dropouts' on the tape (brief signal disappearance) which may not show on the camcorder (..because many camcorders substitute a previous frame of video for any damaged frame..) but may only show up when you try importing. This may happen if, for instance, you recorded at a slower than normal speed, e.g; LP speed instead of Standard Play speed.
So check, first, how much empty space you have on your internal disc, and see if your external disc can be attached by FireWire, instead of the - what's becoming almost ubiquitous - USB connection.

"No photos found" when importing from Canon 7D via USB

Lightroom has no problem finding my Canon 7D. In the Import dialog, my camera shows up as "Canon 7D" under Source. Still, in the main window it's always that "No photos found" message. :-(
I have formatted the memory card (Sandisk Extreme Pro 32GB and other cards as well) in the camera a several times, taken some pictures and retried importing. Always that "No photos found".
Using EOS Utility is never a problem when importing.
My OS is Windows 7. Firmware 2.0 in camera. EOS Utility version 2.11.4.0
Always the latest Lightroom version.
Am I doing something wrong?

Ken –
I have Windows 7, PhotoShop Elements 10, and trying this in the organizer. Basically, I open Photoshop, login to Adobe ID, and then the black screen comes up. I went to:
File, then “get photos and video”, then “get from camera or card reader”
Elements Organizer – Photo downloader box opens up
There’s a pull down menu asking where to get photos from under the source box but it says “no device found” and doesn’t give me options
I have an older Canon EOS Rebel XT or 350D Digital camera (approx. from 2005). Elements does mention that sometimes you have to download the software from the original camera to then be able to download the photos to photoshop. I was trying to avoid this step and not download this really outdated software on my laptop but if that turns out to be the only way to import my photos, I may not have a choice. If you can suggest where I am going wrong with trying to download the photos, please do so. I have the cord plugged correctly from my camera to the USB port on my HP laptop.
Thank you!
Allie

No previews when importing from Canon 40D

I apologize if this issue has been discussed before, but my search techniques dont seem to be coming up with anything useful in the forum search.
I have recently purchased a Canon 40D and when importing directly from the camera cannot see the .cr2 previews. I only see the file names and grey squares. The import function works just fine, I just cant see previews. I have installed the Canon codec and tried the various previews settings (minimal, 1:1, etc..) but nothing seems to fix the issue.
I have LR 2.3 installed on a Windows XP system.
Thanks
Michael

Going back to a standard screen profil has ever solved the known "grey miniatures" issue, as far as I know.
I have tons of examples on a French Lightroom forum.
That's pretty strange that it didn't solve the issue for you...
Let's take it the other way round:
When a Canon camera is connected directly to a desktop via USB, because of specific drivers/protocol used by Canon, camera is not recognized as a standard mass storage.
By the way, it is way better to use a card reader to avoid this type of issue.

IPhoto 7.1.5 freeze when importing photos

After iPhoto '08 7.1.5 (378) update,
photo import freezes just after displaying thumbnails and pushing "Import" button, when "Import preparation" is displayed.
Same try with new libraries, also with a second user, also after various reboots and with preference panes additional software limitations.
The previous release was OK on my PPC G4 mac.
Any user with the same trouble ?
TIA

Tkx Terence,
but it doesn't comes from the hardware.
I don't proceed to time machine backup of Application folder. Only datas + system. And I'm wrong, because I can't restore iPhoto 7.1.4 with a simple restore operation !
The update has done 2 simultaneous changes : iPhoto_715.pkg + RAWCameraUpdate.pkg
I've downloaded iphoto_714.pkg (it was already in my receipts), but it's not possible to re-instal it :
1/ message : "iphoto release in place is newer than 7.1.4" when I don't remove iPhoto from application folder.
2/ message : "iphoto cannot be found" when I remove both iphoto_715.pkg from receipts and iphoto application from application folder.
iPhoto was installed on my dual processor mac when i got it, but it was 10.1.1 OS release ! you can imagine the installation process !!!
That's a bad experience, i will backup application folder with Time machine in the future.
- Anyone knows how to re-install iPhoto 7.1.4 ?

Computer freezes when importing CDs or playing songs through iTunes

Hi! I have been searching for a solution to this problem, but have not had any luck. Whenever I try to import a CD to iTunes, my computer freezes. Just recently, my computer started freezing when I play songs through iTunes. I have noticed that some people have similar, if not the same, problem and any suggestions of things that may help are greatly appreciated!

ITunes for Windows freezes when importing a library. I have a large but not huge library of mostly iTunes purchased music on two authorized computers and would like to sync the files, export the library as a playlist, and import it on the other computer.

I am running iTunes for Windows 10.2.2 on Windows 7 Home. I have my iTunes library on both this computer and another authorized machine running Windows 7 Professional. I have a large but not enormous library, as I'm one of those people who doesn't pirate, use torrents, borrow from a dozen friends, or whatever other shades of gray you might imagine. It's mostly iTunes purchases with my old CD collection imported. I have started using the following technique to sync my libraries between my two authorized computers, an ability which you can probably all agree should one day be added to iTunes -- that would be different from Home Sharing, because the music would be stored locally and thus available on the road. With the added benefit of the entire library being backed up on the other machine in real-time. Anyway, when I switch from my desktop to laptop and vice versa, I use the following technique:
Connect both machines to the home network. One machine is the "Active" machine, which has most recently been used for iTunes media, purchases, ratings, etc.
On the "Active" machine, File-->Library-->Export. Save the file as "Library.xml" on the shared drive of the other machine.
Right-click "Library.xml" where it's been saved, and open another file that has two lines in it: The root path of the iTunes library on one machine and the root path of the iTunes library on the other machine.
Do a find/replace all in Notepad to make the library XML file point to where the files will be saved on the "Inactive" machine.
Run Microsoft SyncToy to synchronize the files between both music libraries; the most recent files win. This avoids copying the entire multi-gigabyte library over the network.
Open iTunes on the "Inactive" machine.
Go to Music, Select All, Delete. Keep files.
Do the same for Movies, Music Videos.
Go down to Playlists, select the top one, hold down the delete button until they're all gone.
File-->Library-->Import Playlist. Choose the "Library.xml" file you saved.
First a status bar comes up that says, "Importing library." It has the continually-scrolling progress bar, not the one that starts on the left and steadily creeps right. Then after about 30 seconds, that clears out. Wait. Typically a few minutes. Eventually a status bar will pop up saying something like, "Evaluating gapless playback information," or something like that.
The "Inactive" computer is now the "Active" computer. I can now play my library, it has all my playlists and metadata from the other machine.
Delete all the duplicate playlists named "Music," "Genius," "Purchased," and "iTunes DJ."
Well, I just upgraded to iTunes 10.2.2 a few days ago and tried to do this again like I've done it dozens of times before. Now, iTunes just goes unresponsive after the library import. It got through the "Importing library" bar to the long wait and stopped. I can still multiprocess and use other programs, but iTunes is hovering back there not responding to clicks. Task Manager doesn't seem to think iTunes is using my CPU, and I don't see my hard drive rattling. Any thoughts on why iTunes might hang up when importing a large library?
... Also, please help lobby Apple to come up with a network sync tool built into iTunes for a user with multiple authorized computers. Something different than Home Sharing so I can pull my laptop off the network and still have the synced library with me. And all my metadata changes will sync. The technique I use seems a little kludgey, don't you think?

iTunes isn't an editor. You need an app that's intended for editing audio files, like Adobe Audition (http://www.adobe.com/products/audition.html) or Audacity (free in the App Store).

IPOD FREEZES WHEN SYNCING WITH ITUNES/WON'T UPDATE SONGS

Make that another person WITH AN IPOD PROBLEM...But i don't have the receipt(it was a Christmas present for my son and i bought it at apple.com and i'm not good at keeping receipts)It does not sync with Itunes on my mac it freezes when trying to sync it. It updates a couple songs and stops and if you click on something you get the pinwheel and i did restore it to factory specsto and i can't disconnect without just pulling the plug and i don't think that my nearest apple store will help me either...

IPod classic freezes when syncing with iTunes

This is a complicated story involving my two brothers, a traded ipod, and sadness - here goes...
Brother "A" had an iPod, which was traded to brother "B". Brother "A" was on windows, brother "B" was on a mac. The ipod would not sync with the mac, even after being reformatted and restored with latest software of both itunes and ipod. When syncing it gets to song 25 and stops. Every time, no matter the song.
Here is what I have tried:
• All software updated
• Ipod was reformatted and restored
• iTunes library was rebuilt - all unauthorized songs and duplicates removed (my brothers library was a mess)
After all this it still freezes when it is copying song 25. The ipod was working fine (so brother "A" claims) when syncing with the windows machine. Any suggestions?

ITunes freezes when syncing with iPhone, but works fine with iPod?

It's a bit of a long story with my iPhone/iTunes problem. In late July, my iPhone stopped syncing properly. It's an iPhone 4. Basically, I tried to add more photo albums to sync onto my phone, something I have done before. It began syncing, then notified me that it couldn't sync 'x' amount of photos. It was a pop up on my phone screen. I tried deleting my cache in My Pictures, still errors. Then it seems like everything possible has just glitched when I sync as weeks went on. It wouldn't sync music. The songs would appear gray and failed to play. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it doesn't. Now, iTunes freezes when it reaches the end of the sync and I have to ctrl+alt+del to close iTunes as it stops working.
I took my iPhone to apple, and she ran diagnostics and couldn't figure out what was wrong with it. She told me she couldn't run diagnostics on my iTunes because it's a Windows laptop and she's "not trained to work with them". She said everything seemed fine with my iPhone and asked if it was possible if I have a virus. I've had no other problems with my laptop whatsoever and I have a decent virus protector that we pay for monthly.
I have tried restoring my phone twice, with a backup. I tried again WITHOUT a backup, and still, it freezes when it syncs, some songs are gray on my iPhone and won't play, and photos refuse to sync, period.
I then tried syncing my dad's iPod with my iTunes, and it worked. I also tried syncing my iPhone on my dad's laptop, and it worked. So something is clearly glitching between specifically my phone and my iTunes. I'm avoiding uninstalling iTunes at all costs because I don't want to lose play count information as the majority of my playlists are created this way. I thought iOs 7 or iTunes 11 (now 11.1) would fix it, but neither did.
Can anyone determine what the problem could be and how to fix it?

the same thing is happening with me. itunes will freeze and then it wont put songs on my ipod.
im starting to get upset since i just went out and bought a new ipod. thinking that was the problem.
PLEASE HELP!!!

RoboHelp freezing when importing large word docs

What are your experiences with RoboHelp for HTML Help when
importing large Word docs?
Mine seems to stop responding and has to be restarted. Also,
creating PDFs for large docs seems to be a problem.
While I am here, could someone please answer these questions:
1. Does RoboHelp support conditional inclusion/exclusion and
replacement of text? Where you can use a condition to display one
text OR another.
2. Does Robo support Modular Help?
3. What about automating output generation using batch files?
Is this possible?
4. Can PDF outputs be customized using templates?
it looks like Robo offers partial solutions to each of the
above questions but I will like to hear your experiences, as I am
on evaluation the tool with limited time.
TIA.
