Hi
WAS -SAP Web Application Server
WAS is an incorrect shortform for SAP WebAS. If you refer to any official documentation, SAP always mentions it as SAP WebAS only. WAS is used more for websphere application server
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/f5/81343ecc7f892ee10000000a114084/frameset.htm
WebAS form the application platform for almost all NW components and comes in different flavors as ABAP Only / ABAP + Java / Java Only.
ABAP + Java flavor is the one which forms the base of SAP XI and XI basically uses all the services offered by this application platform. refer help link for more details..
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/17/f1b640c9aa054fa12493e48912909c/content.htm
There are still two types of server:
The WebAS, part of the Netweaver product. Currenttly it's 6.4 withing NW2004, but eraly next year it's called WebAs 7 within NW2004S.
The R/3 server, now called mySAP ERP (2005).
Since R/3 4.7EE, the base/core for R/3 and WebAs are the same. For 4.7 it's 6.2.
Purpose of SAP XI with SAP WebAS
for example Adatpers :----
All the adapters written in JAVA(EJBs) and deployed into J2EE Engine .They are JCA (Java Connector Architecture) complaint.
Goto Communication channel > Module and check Module Name.....
That module has written in EJBs and depolyed into J2EE Egine. You can see this module in Visual Administrator > Service > Deploy.
This means the WebAS is supporting this J2EE Egine.
SAP Netweaver is platform indepent means it both OS + DB independent. How it is achieving this platform indepent. That is because of WebAS.
Earlier R2 use to run on IBM Mainframs
R3 is running on Basis
Now SAP Netweaver is running on WAS. WAS in nothing but basis.
SAP Netweaver WebAS is just an extenstion of R3 BASIS
ccBPM
CCBPM is a solution providing to a kind of function and to signify little wider sense where integration extend across enterprise and application boundaries.
BPM is used to implement work-flow spanning across multiple application system against embedding the parts of work-flow in application system. Apart from this it also help achive other scenarios like, bridging synch and asynch systems, alert mechanism, multi mapping etc. Check the BPM overview document in SDN download section.
Check out the use cases discussed at http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/de/766840bf0cbf49e10000000a1550b0/content.htm
BPM is mainly used in senarios where extra functionalities are to be done with the source message which cannot be done using the normal mapping and user-defined functions, like
-->Collecting of messages till a certain count or for a specific criteria.
-->Merging messages
-->Spliting messages
-->Processing of error files and sending to specific location and sending alerts.
-->Parallel processing of two criterias at the same time can also be done using BPM.

    Yes, you can do all of that via Tools - Forms - More Form Options - Import Data, if you have Acrobat.
    If you only have the free Reader then you can still do it, but it requires a script.

    CS2 is very old and reached its "end of life" a while back.  So probably won't run on modern operating systems.  If you can still run it, you'll need to uninstall what you have and re-install with the download link below to activate it.

  • My homepage will load about 30% and then i'm dead in the water. when i close firefox it appears to close but when i try to reopen it tells me that it's already running. started with beta 6 i deleated and loaded ver 5 no change

    when i start firefox, everything starts normal then my homepage (igoogle) starts to load, gets to about 30% and stops. from there i can click on links or bookmark and a new tab will open but no page will load. i can't get anywhere. then when i close firefox it appears to close normally but when i try to reopen firefox i get a message that firefox is still running but not responding and the only way to shut it down is to reboot. when it first occured i was running beta 6 (since it became available, i also used beta 4 & beta 5) i then uninstalled beta 6 and downloaded and installed ver 5 same problem. i then did a system restore to a time before the problem.. no luck. i'm not sure what to try next. IE & chrome both work fine

    I'm in exactly the same boat - dead at blue screen, only option is to salvage using target mode.
    I don't currently have access to another Mac to do target mode. I was planning to buy a new Mac this fall anyway, though. 2 questions in preparation for that purchase:
    1) Is there anything I can do before buying a new Mac to make the salvage process more successful? ie, should I spend the time and money going to the genius bar to have them help me get from totally crippled to partially crippled? (As for expertise, I'm a proficient consumer-grade user, but Apple Support walked me through the safe-boot process, etc.)
    2) Is Apple going to provide 10.5 once it is released to people who buy a new Mac in these 6 weeks pre-release?
    Thanks for your help,
    Bailey

  • Firefox will open 4 or 5 tabs fine, but then will not load any further websites after those first 4 or 5, or allow you to refresh one of those first tabs -- including about:config and the addon page

    Firefox 5 worked fine. I installed Firefox 7, and when I ran it, tabs would just say "connecting to..." and hang. Restarting did not help. Websites open fine in IE and Chrome. Disabled all firewalls and antivirus, did not help. Uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox 5, everything worked fine again. This was using Vista 64-bit.
    Upgraded to Windows 7, uninstalled Firefox 5, installed Firefox 7, had same problem. Uninstalled Firefox 7 completely (including the profile information, I saved that information in another folder), restarted computer, and installed Firefox 7 using a completely clean profile. Did not install any add-ons, checked to make sure all plug-ins were up-to-date, and updated plugins.
    Now when I start Firefox, I can load 3 or 4 or 5 tabs fine -- after those first few tabs are open, I cannot open or refresh any other tabs -- including about:config and the add-on manager -- I have to restart Firefox. The hangup doesn't appear to be related to what websites I am attempting to open, but it looks like the number is the problem. I have run through all of the FAQ procedures, including changing the max number of network connections to 48, and the problem does not seem to go away.
    As a side note, I had this same problem when I tried to go from version 5 to version 6 as well. Version 5 is the most recent version that worked on my system.

    Can you try Aurora - download it from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/channel/
    And let us know how it works.

  • Best avenue to file complaints about bill and have them resolved

    I have been a customer since before 2005 and went with Ntelos in November, I called the night I was at Ntelos to ask Verizon what my contract buy outs were and I was given the prices. The representative tried to offer me whatever promotions she could offer (there wasn't many) and I declined service (there she should have took the initiative to ask about disconnecting). Since my bf opted to keep his number his phone disconnected automatically. I was told my Verizon phone would cycle off within 24 - 48 hours by the Ntelos rep. That was not the case so I called verizon to ensure my phone would disconnect and they told it would at the end of the billing cycle (december 20) which makes sense. I understand I would be responsible for the November - December. Anyways, December 20th rolls around and mind you I've called already to ensure it will take place and it doesn't. I phone in and come to find out the person who took my orders didn't complete the disconnection and now I have to wait until January 20th for it to cycle off and I can finally pay my bill! Well get this in my November - December bill they've charged me $51 for Monthly access (I have a work discount) and $49.99 for insurance and smartphone access for 12/21 - 1/20 and won't refund my $51 as they say that I called out on the phone. I turned the phone on and had voicemails that I think I checked around the time period that they are mentioning (1 day) and that data was used (1 day) I had no outbound calls after December 11th my birthday. Because there are no comments in my account (that I specifically asked them to make) my phone should have been disconnected when I had called in the first of December... really!?! The phone should have been turned off regardless and it was one day out of 30 seriously? I mean the phone has been turned off this whole time and literally only checked to make sure Verizon did their job. I CAN'T HELP IT YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO YOUR JOB, I PUT THE EFFORT IN MULTIPLE TIMES TO LET YOU KNOW MY PHONE NEEDED TO BE DISCONNECTED YOU SHOULD HAVE KEPT RECORD OF IT!!! What really heats me up is that I was told a supervisor would give me a call back after they got out of a meeting and I have not rec'd a call back yet. VERIZON Reps/Supervisors your customers are the reason why you have get a paycheck, I suggest you start treating them a little better. You can't seriously tell me giving me back my $51 for service I DID NOT USE (except according to you for one day you can't even give me details about?) is really going to hurt your pockets. I've been jerked around by your reps for the last 2 months as one told me my contracts were up in January and I shouldn't' be charged for disconnection fees at all, she credited me those termination fees but they later got rejected (after she said her supervisor approved while I was on hold) and NO ONE HAD THE COURTESY TO NOTIFY ME!
    I've worked in customer service before and I'll be first to tell you that your reps are not trained very well and you have horrible ethic! You should not charge your customers for an error that was your fault; especially since it was your reps that I asked specifically to note my account and didn't (this isn't my first rodeo with you all, it should be standard procedure to give your reps time to comment before throwing them into another phone call). I'm not doing this for my health here, that $51 could buy diapers and baby food for my daughter and you are crazy if you think I'm going to let it slip through my fingers to line your pockets. I will keep escalating it until you do something about it and I don't care that you already gave me an inconvenience credit I deserve that and my $51 so don't try to justify it that way! This has been way more than an inconvenience, so don't worry I'll inconvenience you as well!

    Message was edited by: Verizon Moderator

    With my new provider I am only using the chat function to settle anything with them so I can save the conversations I've had with them (not that I've had any issues thus far). It should be standard procedure for them to comment your account while they are on the phone with you before hanging up. I should have been annoying and asked them to read back their comments (hindsight ugh!).  I'm sorry that you are having to deal with this as well, just know you are not the only one receiving horrible customer service. I'll share with you what I wrote on their Facebook page. They really should take some accountability for their actions and have better follow up on resolving issues (or train their representatives better). I can't stand having to talk to another person time and time again explaining the same thing i just explained to 3 people before them.
    Almost immediately, I received some attention after posting this:
    Dear Verizon,
    I am appalled, especially after reading your credo, that you are refusing to credit back money that is owed to me because your representatives didn't take the necessary time that they should have to comment (after I specifically asked) in my account after I diligently called in multiple times to ensure that my disconnection took place when it was scheduled to and was told that it would (an ongoing issue since the beginning of December). Come to find out that the representatives I spoke with prior to December 20th didn't do their jobs correctly by not entering the disconnection orders in. "Verizon Credo- a set of principles that describes our culture of integrity, respect, performance excellence and accountability. The Credo is a blueprint that directs us to live up to the highest standards possible when serving our customers, shareowners, communities and each other." Let me school you on something here because it appears that you just put that mission statement up on your website 'cause it sounds good, you certainly do not follow through! Accountability: Noun - the quality or state of being accountable; especially an obligation or willingness to accept responsibility or to account for one's actions (i.e. public officials lacking accountability). It doesn't matter that you cannot find any proof in my statements it doesn't change the fact that it happened and I am not a liar. I seriously wouldn't exhaust this must effort had I been lying. I'll take this a step further and reference your statement "we focus outward on the customer, not inward. We make it easy for customers to do business with us, by listening, anticipating and responding to their needs." First of all, when I made my initial call to you all asking what my contract buyout prices were and your rep tried to offer me promotions (or lack there of) to keep me as a customer and I declined she should have "anticipated" my need for disconnection. I shouldn't have had to jump through so many hoops to get my service disconnected from you all and pay my final bill. It's not my fault that your representatives weren't trained well enough to correctly put through disconnection orders. Based on my interactions with your customer service I could see where people would disconnect their services regularly!!!!! You are not making it easy for me to severe ties with you and conduct BUSINESS and you are not responding to my NEEDS. I think you forget that I could be a potential customer in the future. If it's one thing I learned from my Communications Degree is that negative feedback will reach more consumers vs. positive feedback of a company and how they handle their business. I have 1,000 plus facebook friends and twitter followers so I'm pretty sure my negative experience could reach quite a few people! You say you have integrity? How is it moral uprightness to charge me for a whole month of service (regardless if the phone was turned on once) for a billing period that shouldn't have existed if your customer service reps did their job correctly? I suggest that you all take a good look at the way you are treating your current customers because we are the reason you get a paycheck! You should make your customers a priority especially if they've been with you for 10 + years regardless if they are disconnecting service or not! How about following through, taking ACCOUNTABILITY and having that supervisor representative call me back from my phone conversation last night like I am a priority (how every customer should be treated) and helping me get the money that I am owed, regardless if the phone had been turned on for a short period (your rep couldn't even tell me what numbers I supposedly called - exactly the phone has been off since December 20th if not before unless turned on to confirm disconnection)! Oh but let me guess did you all forget to put that in my account comments as well? Probably like there is no mention of the formal complaint I filed against some of your representatives that there was supposedly no ticket number for. I thought I was going to regret leaving Verizon for another provider but it turns out that I only wish I would have left sooner and actually gone to a authorized dealer/ Verizon Store to process my disconnection because your customer service line is a joke!

  • This isn't a question but rather a warning to anyone using the new OS for iphone 4.  The imessage uses up your data plan like crazy.  I called Apple about it and they said no it's not doing it.  I called AT

    The new OS is burning through my data plan like crazy and here's why.  Imessage uses your data plan and not your texting plan.  So every time you send a text message to someone with an iphone it uses imessage and it uses your data, not your text plan.  I couldn't figure out why I was burning through so much of my data plan so quickly.  I called Apple and they said, no it's not the data plan doing it.  I called AT&T and they said, yes, the imessage uses data instead of your texting plan if you are texting to another iphone.  Also, the new OS runs your apps all the time, even when you aren't using them.  So if you are not near wifi your apps are running and burning your data plan.  The AT&T guy took me through the steps to turn off the apps.  You can still use them but they won't be running constantly.  Seriously Apple, you should let people know this.  It does say it in the fine print on the website "data rates may apply" under imessage but most people will never read this.  So my data plan started on October 10th and it's already at 175 megabytes and I only have a 200 megabyte plan.  I've never used more than 50 to 75 megabytes in a month.  Apple get it together and be honest with people and tell them.  Quit denying the problem.  Most people have probably not even discovered this yet.  Wait till you get your bill.

    It's not really common knowledge because I've talked to several people today and none of them knew about it.  Also, when I called Apple they said no the new OS is not using data.  Totally wrong answer.  You'd think they'd know about it and at least tell people.  The people who are going to be hit by this are people like me with the 200mb plans.  I just think it's best to spread the word so people can know what's happening.  I still don't know how I went through so much data in such a short period of time.  It's not happening anymore though, not since I fixed everything up last night. 
    If you are using a free wifi connection, there are no data charges with iMessage.  But in an area where you did NOT have a wifi connection, of course it used 3G and of course you got charged for it (or had it count against your plan limits).
    I'll ask again - without a wifi connection, just what did you think was happening?  How did you think your iPhone was able to magically send a message WITHOUT using any data connection?  A little bit of rational thought would have made you realize that there was no way, over a 3G connection (which is a service provided by your cellular service provider, NOT Apple), that you can send or receive ANYTHING without your service provider's plan picking it up.
    Nothing abut iMessage has ever hinted that it can, in any way, bypass your service provider when NOT using a wifi connection.

  • New tab for Contract for data about products and product sales.

    Looking for ideas to implement a new tab on the Contract (RECN)
    We have some basic data about products and product sales that we want to have implemented on a screen tab for a contract.  The user needs to be able to enter information about a product, quantity, year grown, and tax info. And then each of these products may have one or many sales records showing date of sale, quantity sold, and a brief note.
    So a contract can have 1 or many products and a product can have one or many sales records.
    The user needs to be able to enter, update and delete any one of these records.  And, ideally, enter multiple of each before saving.
    Do any of you have ideas about how to go about this?  Using ALV grids? or table controls? I'm still wet behind the ears regarding doing screen development in SAP so am open to any and all suggestiions.
    SAP 6.4 is the version we are at.
    Thanks
    Laurie

    Maybe the original order to renew and keep unlimited data was cancelled because it was not an option. It wasn't a "bait-and-switch" The order was cancelled, it wasn't switched. When you called to reissue the order they told you the correct options so they did not switch you without your knowledge. The second rep was correct, he didn't lie, the first rep did. Verizon cancelled the order because if they didn't you would have been set up w/ new 2 year agreements on a tiered data plan, which would have been illegal. Thats why they cancelled it. So you can either not make the change, keep the unlimited data and buy the phones outright. Or switch, go to a tiered plan, and get new phones. By glitch they meant the system accidentally allowed you to keep the unlimited plan, though it was not an option. Verizon has had this rule since they removed the unlimited plan back in '11.

  • I have a Macbook Pro june 2011... I have 8GB ram but I only have 256mb VRAM... I've read some other questions about this and I realized... Why do I not have 560mb of VRAM since I have 8GB of RAM? Is there any way to get more VRAM to play games on steam?

    I have a Macbook Pro june 2011... I have 8GB ram but I only have 256mb VRAM...
    I've read some other questions about this and I realized... Why do I not have 560mb of VRAM since I have 8GB of RAM?
    Is there any way to get more VRAM to play games on steam?
    I've learned  by reading other topics that I can't upgrade my graphics card on my Macbook Pro because it's soldered into the motherboard or somthing like that, but please tell me if there is any way to get more video ram by chaning some setting or upgrading something else. I'd also like to know why I only have 256MB of VRAM when I have 8GB of RAM, since I have 8GB of RAM I thought I was supposed to have 560mb of VRAM...
    So the two questions are...
    Is there any way to upgrade my VRAM, so that I can play games on steam?
    Why do I only have 256MB VRAM when I have 8GB total RAM?
    Other Info:
    I have a quad core i7 Processor.
    My graphcics card is the AMD Radeon HD 6490M.
    I am also trying to play games on my BOOTCAMPed side of my mac, or my Windows 7 Professional side.
    THANK YOU SO MUCH IF YOU CAN REPLY,
    Dylan

    The only two items that a user can change on a MBP are the RAM and HDD (Retinas not included).  You have what the unit came with and the only way you will be able to change that is to purchase a MBP with superior graphics
    If you are very much into gaming, the I suggest A PC.  They are far superior for that type of application to a MBP.

  • A few questions about MacBooks and Parallels Desktop.

    I have a few questions about MacBooks and Parallels Desktop.
    1) I understand I need at least 1GB of RAM to run Parallels Desktop but what about the hard drive, is the stock 60GB drive big enough?
    2) Related to question 1, even if it was big enough to allow me to install and run Windows would the 60GB drive be enough if I wanted to install a Linux distribution as well?
    3) This has nothing to do with Parallels Desktop but thought I'd ask it here anyway, do Apple Stores carry just the stock MacBooks, or do they carry other configurations?
    Thanks
    Keith

    1. Depend on how intensive you use that HD for saving data on both Mac OS and XP. For standard installation on both OS X and XP, the space of 60 Gb is enough.
    2. Same answer as no 1. You can install all three on that HD space, but the extra spacce available will be less and less for your data. You can save your data on external or back up on cd/dvd and erase it from the HD to keep the free space.
    Remember to leave at least 2 or 3 Gb for virtual memory usage.
    3. Just call them, maybe they don't have it in store stock, but by appointment they might configure one for you before your pick-up date.
    Good Luck

  • Am i missing somthing about speed and coverage please help very very slow speeds!

     i get speed test results of 1/10 of a megabyte per second all of the time regularly that is 100kbps  many times it is also like .06 mbps.  it takes forever to load web pages and i cant watch video!  i called verizon many times becuase i can get 5 bars of evdo. 2 miles away in the vzw store my usb modem worked fine (about 1mbps) and it works better at home like @ half a mbps speed in the early morning like @ 6am.  tech support told me after opening a trouble ticket they found this is a marginal coverage area and they will not be improving it in the near future.  i dont know how the coverage area changes from morning to the rest of the day.  i asked about possibly getting out of my contract and they said i had to still pay an early termination fee or produce a death certificate or military papers saying i was being deployed overseas. furthermore i was told since this is mobile broadband i should just go somewhere else when i need to use the mobile broadband card.  i had so much trouble logging into this site because verizon keeps saying my password and username for this forum is not correct so i have to keep trying to make new ones.  then somtimes just when i thought i had logged in it says the server is forbidden from accessing this site, which is the only time on any website i ever got this message.  i just wish i could get the speeds they aadvertise or somthing even close to it so that i could load web pages. i feel like i am being forced to change to another wireless provider and pay an early termination fee because i cant do basic work and load web pages which is what i was promised according to their map which says i live in a good coverage area.  i pay my bills on time every month and so i feel like i am not being treated fairly as a customer.  am i missing somthing?

    If it works everywhere else, then it does sound like a marginal service area.  If no one is making use of the tower, then there could be a better signal to your residence in the morning.  During peak times, the signal might not be as strong and could be degrading to the point where your speeds/connectivity gets questionable.  Being inside a structure and what materials can also have an adverse effect.  Also, your verbage is confusing.  100 kilobytes per second is a pretty average speed for EVDO.  1/10 of a megabyte a second is the same speed.  Unless you are referring to .1 megabits per second, that is a whole different story.  I'm assuming the latter if you are having problems loading pages, but again, if it's a marginal area VZW is showing on their side, that's probably the case.  Also, the 3G map might not be the same as the Voice/1X map in your area.  Maybe double check the map you're looking at.

    It has an ATI 2600HD with 256MB VRAM.  This card has two DVI ports.
    I just purchased an ATI Radeon 5770.  I will use it with two Cinema Displays (DVI connections).
    To connect the second display, I have the Apple Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter at Firmware 1.03.
    My question concerns Parallels 8.
    My Windows 7 VM will be a heavy-use VM so I want snappy performance.  I was planning to dedicate 8GB RAM, half my CPU cores to it, and 512MB VRAM on the 5770.
    What I was wondering about was the possibility of leaving in the 2600 HD and using its GPU to support my Parallels VM.  Is that feasible?  Practical?
    Thanks

    Dump the 2600XT (put it on the shelf, don't use it)
    Install Windows natively first, then you can use it both ways, natively and dual boot, plus in a VM when that works.
    Another option is 10.8.2 supports more Nvidia cards and more then the 1GB.
    Don't use green 3TB in an array.

  • From hdd to ssd: what about os and all data?

    Hello everybody.
    I know there are a lot of discussion about it and i read lots of them,
    But maybe because english is not my first language, i have some problems in understanding the right things to do.
    Also, i am pretty new with mac world as i just have my mb pro since last november.
    so i hope you can help me with easy words, thanks.
    here's the list of what i have:
    - MacBook Pro 2.5ghz, 4gb ram, 500gb hdd
    - os x mavericks (installed 2 days ago)
    - all my documents/photos/music in my MB Pro
    ... and:
    - crucial ssd 480gb
    - an external hd enclosure usb 3.0
    - the 17 in 1 tool kit
    What do i have to do first?
    And how will i transfer/install the os x from hd to ssd? or it "remains" somewhiere in my MB Pro?
    I know there is a link from crucial with the procedure for removing hd and installing ssd, is this all i have to do?
    Really hope you can help me... thanks in advance!
    F.

    Follow these steps:
    Make certain that you have your data backed up as a precaution.
    Attach the SSD to the MBP and open Disk Utility>Erase.  Format the SSD to Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
    Open Disk Utility>Restore and in the 'Source' field drag the internal HDD from the left hand column.
    In the 'Destination' field, drag the SSD from the left hand column.
    Click on the 'Restore' button.
    Depending upon the amount of data, this process may take a couple of hours.
    When finished, restart your MBP holding doen the OPTION key.  The display should show the internal HDD and the external SSD (yellow in color).  Click on the SSD and if it boots the MBP, the clone has been successful.
    Perform the physical swap.  Your MBP should be ready to go.  All of your data will be on the SSD exactly as it was on the HDD.
    Ciao.

  • About bridge and extreme sloth

    Setup: Running win7-64bit, on i7 with 8GB ram, using tools from the cloud (trial)
    If this is the wrong forum for bridge there seems to be no forum for bridge specifically so posting here because I'm currently using bridge with PR.
    After downloading all the still and videos from days work, (5 videos and some 50+ stills plus the raw formats too), I'm trying to go through them, do some renaming and general organizing prior to loading videos into PR.
    At first I thought the new bridge had no right click functions, since when I attempt to right click an image or series of images nothing happens.  No menu is raised.
    But, finally the right click menu appeared and I was able to batch rename.  But every little chore, renaming, copying to somewhere else and even just moving around I find to be like wading through thick (deep) mud.
    I have PR and Bridge open along with Google earth but no other process is really processing data or doing other heavy lifting except bridge.
    Is 8gb of ram just too puny for the newest adobe tools, or are there steps I can take that will allow bridge to function at something approaching a reasonable speed?

    In the lower right hand corner of Bridge you will see an arrow.  If it is spinning it means it is building the cache.  With CS6 it seems to lock up the application until finished, and seems to take longer than in CS5.  Thumbnails seem to build at the rate of about 1 second for every 30 meg.  So for a 300 meg video file it takes about 10 seconds, at least on my system.  Once the cache is built then things run at a good clip. 
    (PS - Processor speed: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU Q820  @  1.73GHz  1.73GHz)
    I see a pause in actions even after the arrow quits spinning (I guess you meant the lower LEFT side?).
    For example, once the arrow quits, if I click a top menu item (any one of them) I experience a second pause nearly as long as the arrow spin pause, before the menu opens.  Once that has happened then other menu items or the same one are normally fast to respond to a click.
    A further example of what seems to be uneccessary sloth happens if I minimize bridge or focus on a differnt app window such as this browser, then go back to bridge and click a menu item, I see a full 5/6 second pause before the menu is displayed. After having clicked and waited on one menu item, the rest respond normally to a click
    A quick look at what a session might look like:
    Click a directory in folder (or content) view (wait out a 4/6 second pause)
    Once the directory has opened press Ctrl-a to select all images (wait out a 4/6 second pause) click a new directory (wait out a 4/6 second pause) right click to get to `paste' or press Ctrl-v  (wait out a 4/6 second pause).
    Not really a workable flow (at least not for me).
    Curt Y wrote:[...]
    Also check your thumbnals.  I use embedded as they are small and fast.  If you use HQ, and generate 100% preview they can use a lot of disk space and would take longer to build.  Thumbnail options are two squares on 2nd line of tool bar on right hand side.
    Switching between "Always high quality" and "Prefer imbedded" I don't see any noticable change.  But that is on directories with fairly small content, like a mixture of 40 raw and 40 jpg stills at 6000x4000. Something like  1.35 GB of data. The *.jpg are about 10MB and the (raw) *.arw are about 24 MB.
    One really maddening thing I see here, is that when I've been focused on some other app window, then come back to bridge and right click on an image in a open directory, the pause for the right click menu to show up is a full 8 seconds.
    And that right click pause never goes away.  That is, if I right click andwait for the menu, then right click on the next image I have another 4/6 second pause for the menu to appear.

    For some reason if you purge cache with Tools/cache/purge cache for xxx folder they seem to rebuild much faster.
    I don't see any noticable change here following that proceedure.
    Curt Y wrote:
    Bridge is more dependant on processor speed than RAM.
    How much processor speed is requred to not see these nasty pauses?
    On my current working machine, the repeated pausing in bridge has meant that its nearly useless.  Bridge ends up being saved only for mass rename or image processing chores.

  • I went into about:config and there is no conduit in there but I know it is because it is in my startup

    I am going nuts with this damn conduit malware. I have tried everything. This morning when I got up it seemed as though my whole computer crashed. It wouldn't even go on. I unplugged a couple of plugs for a while, and lo and behold it came on. Whew!!
    I went into about:config and there was nothing in there with conduit. However, it is in my startup in MsConfig. And I know that is what is giving me so many problems. I did see something in there that I wanted to get out, but it wouldn't let me. How can I do that????

    Hello,
    That depends on which ones you use. HitmanPro has a trial period, so you can uninstall once you get rid of your problem (there is no permanent free version for it).
    However, [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/ MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware] and [http://general-changelog-team.fr/en/downloads/viewdownload/20-outils-de-xplode/2-adwcleaner AdwCleaner] have free versions - you do not need to use the trial period/pay for those ones. For MalwareBytes, the last dialog box in the installation will ask you to start the Free Trial period of the Premium version, '''uncheck that box''' so that it remains as the free version. I think even if you choose to use the trial, you can revert back to the free version later.
