ACR Cache Constantly Rebuilds

Everytime I click on a folder of images the cache rebuilds from scratch. This behavior started this week. I've trashed prefs but it didn't help. I'm using CS3 on Dell computer with 4GB of ram and Vista.

If you are talking about the cache from raw files inside of Bridge, that's _NOT_ Camera Raw's cache...that's Bridge's cache. You would be better off asking about your issue in the Windows Bridge forum...

  • How to - move ACR cache and LR cache and catalog

    Hi all,
    in the try of speeding things up a bit with my LR (v. 2.4 64 bit on Vista 64 SP2, E8650 proc and 8 GB RAM) I got an 2nd hand WD Raptor 150 GB 10K rpm, and I'd like to move there the ACR cache (around 60GB now) and the LR previews and catalogs (around 20 GB) . Which is the right and safer procedure to do that!? :-)
    Another question: my setting about File Handling are the following:
    1680 pixels as standards preview file size
    Preview quality Medium
    Never discard 1:1 preview size
    and in the grid mode (library) when I page down or up ... I always have the 3 white dots (of waiting) the pictures taken 3-4 secs go from fuzzy to sharp. How can I improve that time?
    Thanks to all who will answer :-)
    Have a nice day,
    gianluca

    There is nothing you can do to change the time that thumbnails to refresh. The fuzziness is normal while the three dots are visible and indicates that Lr is scanning the files within the Grid for external metadata or develop changes.
    To move the catalog and preview folder you simply drag (copy) it to the new drive, open the relocated folder and double click on the .lrcat (catalog) file. The double click operation will open Lightroom with the relocated catalog active.
    You can drag the ACR cache file to the new drive. However, to ensure Lightroom/Camera Raw use the correct ACR cache you will need to open Preferences>File Handling and point to the location that you want the cache files to be saved.
    Be aware that moving above folder is going to take a fair amount of time, albeit significantly less than rebuilding the cache and previews from scratch.

  • I'm having to clear cache constantly now in order to load pages.

    Unless I clear my cache constantly, I get either an "invalid url" error or an "oops, no such page error"--sometimes an incomplete Web page.

    many, some of which are new to me

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the ''Safe mode'' start window.
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")

  • Constantly rebuilding Mail

    Here's the deal:
    I used Entourage for a long time but with my new MacBook I decided to give Mail a try.
    It's good, but I'm having a problem that I can't solve, so I'm thinking on going back to Entourage.
    I manage 4 POP accounts.
    The first one is my company e-mail. So, since the pop server (10.x.x.x) is inside my company network, I have to change when I'm at home (pop.mycompany.xxx)
    The second is the oposite. It is my home pop server. (10.x.x.x) when I'm at home and (pop.myhomeserver.com) when I'm at work.
    The third is an external account, that I never need to change the server.
    The fourth is my .mac account that also works fine.
    So the problem is the 2 first accounts.
    Probably because I keeping changing the pop server, Mail is having trouble to "save" my messages at the inbox. Messages keep disapering and I need to constantly rebuild the two accounts.
    Anyone had this problem or can help me with an insight of how to solve this issue?
    Thanks!
    Neto

    In the Finder, go to HOME/Library/Mail/. You'll see several folders whose name starts with POP, followed by an account username and the corresponding incoming mail server. These are the account folders Mail uses to store the mailboxes of each of the accounts (and the messages within them). Now you can see why changing either the account username or the incoming mail server is a really bad idea.
    What I don't understand is, if those accounts are actually different and they use different usernames and/or incoming mail servers, why don't you just set up a different account in Mail for each one? Why do you make all of this so convoluted? I really don't get it.

  • ACR Cache

    I own CS3.
    My digital processing PC has 3 drives.
    My C: drive has just programs and OS. It is a 36 GB WD Raptor
    My D: drive is a slower WD Caviar 320GB and houses my RAWs and processed jpgs. I use other 320GB Caviar drive (my E: drive) as one of my backups (should D: fail).
    The other day I noticed, to my surprise, that my C: drive had less than 1 GB of free space remaining. Hmm, that's interesting, I didn't have THAT many programed installed. I looked to see how this was possible and noticed that there is a huge amount of space (>6 GB) in the user "Documents and Settings" folder devoted to both Camera Raw and Bridge cache in various 'Application Data" folders. I prefer to have more free space on my primary C: drive. I noticed Picasa was storing a ton of files on it as well as freed a few GBs of space by only allowing Picasa to view JPEGs (and not my RAWs). So i wonder if there is some maintenance/preference changes I can do with CS3 to further create drive space. The E: drive is only used whenever I backup files.
    In ACR Preferences I noticed I could change where Camera Raw's cache is stored. Should I change it to my rarely used, but slower, E: drive or just decrease the size of the cache? Can I do so for the Bridge cache as well? And if I do change the cache's location, will all of the information currently store in the cache's present location be migrated to the new location automatically?
    Any advice is appreciated. I prefer to be taking photos rather than trying to figure out how my computer works.

    Thanks - I'd long ago assigned the PS scratch drive to my internal E: drive. I guess my biggest question is if I reassign the drive for both my Bridge and ACR caches to this drive, will the contents of the cache migrate to the new drive seamlessly? I guess this is technically a Windoze inquiry.
    I just want to avoid any problems like finding out the many GBs of cache info was not transferred to the relocated folder and no longer accessed by PS/ACR due to the fact the cache folders are in a new location.
    Jao, I just assumed the 320 GB drive would be slower as it is not a Raptor 10,000 RPM drive like the boot C: drive. But maybe it IS faster if the system is forever accessing thngs of the system drive. Don't know - my passion is photos, not information processing.
    Thanks for all the help thus far guys!!

  • Purge, Resize or change ACR cache in Elements

    " 1. In Adobe Bridge, choose Edit > Camera Raw Preferences (Windows) or Bridge > Camera Raw Preferences (Mac OS), or, with the Camera Raw dialog box open, click the Open Preferences Dialog button .
    2. Do any of the following:
    To change the cache size, enter a Maximum Size value.
    To purge the camera raw cache, click the Purge Cache button.
    To change the location of the camera raw cache, click Select Location."
    This is from the help for CS3.
    When I open the preferences for ACR in PSE6 there is no button to Purge the Cache, resize the cache or change its location.
    How can I make any of these changes for ACR in PSE6?

    Thank you Thomas , however
    Why then does the ACR cache fill up when running Elements; mine is at its 1GB limit. If it is not being used should it not be empty?

  • Can't change ACR cache location or size

    Whenever I go to change the location of the cache, or even its size, the value immediately resets back the next time I open the preferences panel. Same happens if I try to do this in ACR 6.1. The location that I want to point it at is perfectly valid, on my local drive, and I have all permissions for it.
    Since Adobe apps are slightly retarded and don't follow symlinks, an attempt to sneak in a different location under a symlink ended up as expected in a crash.
    Any ideas how to change the ACR cache path, or why it would be failing? No messages in the Console. OSX 10.6.4, Nehalem MacPro.

    No, links don't really work with any Adobe apps, at least not on OSX. Just try to create a symlink to any of the Camera Raw settings folders (lens profiles, camera profiles - so that they are all the same on all my computers) - no dice. I write OSX software for a living and know my way with symlinks - not sure what Adobe is doing but they don't work.
    But that's not the issue here - my question is why I can't change the cache directory the "normal, pedestrian way" (your average user won't know anything about symlinks).

  • Aperture constantly rebuilds same thumbnails and preview images.

    What is behind Aperture 2's pathological obsession with constantly rebuilding the same thumbnails and preview images, and is there any way to stop it? I can't link this performance killing problem to any specific action on my part; I see it in many different circumstances. For example:
    (1) Putting the system to sleep while Aperture is open then resuming later
    (2) Hiding the Aperture app, working on other memory consuming apps for a while (e.g. Photoshop), then returning to Aperture
    (3) Switching from one project to another via the "Projects" tab.
    (4) Quitting Aperture then restarting it.
    I can say with 100% certainty that this is not the result of some previous thumbnailing/preview generation operation that was interrupted. The # of images in the project doesn't seem to have a bearing. Nor does the type of camera or image type I've imported from the camera.
    I can be happily working in Aperture, working with a project created months ago, when all of a sudden the "generating thumbnails" message and the dreaded Wait Cursor appear and my speedy, well-apportioned iMac grinds to a total halt while Aperture does the same ** thing it's already completed before.
    The only hit I get when searching Apple's support site mentions a known bug for those who upgraded from Aperture 1 to version 2 but definitely does not apply to me here.

    Thank you for the reply Tony. I've followed your suggestion but Aperture continues to (apparently) randomly decide to regenerate thumbnails and previews.
    The problem has become bad enough that I've had to stop using Aperture completely.
    Doesn't anybody from Apple read these forums? I can't possibly be the only Aperture user in the world to experience this problem...

  • ACR Cache - Is It Broken?

    There's been some discussion in another thread about this, but its really off-topic there, and I think warrants its own thread...
    I can find no value in the ACR cache whatsoever. Begging the questions:
    - Is it working as it should, and there is some subtle value I'm missing?, or
    - Is it broken??
    At the moment, I'm totally perplexed.
    When switching views in develop mode to one which DOES HAVE a 1:1 preview available, but DOES NOT HAVE a complete raw-rendering available due to a recent rendering (presumably in RAM, although I dont know), the sequence of display phases for me is:
    1. Nice
    2. Bad
    3. Nice
    And the sequence is not noticably faster with a cache entry available - I haven't done rigorous checking.
    Nor are the views any nicer when cached.
    Nice #1 I assume is the lib preview (which comes up in less than a second and lasts for about a second)
    #2 (Bad) I assume is the develop module's first whack at a rendering (and generally lasts about 2 seconds).
    NIce #3 is the final raw rendering (loading indicator is extinquished when this view is presented).

    Doesn't sound like what I'm seeing - hang on and I'll post 3 screen-shots. In the mean time, add a gradient @100% across the whole image at sharpness=-55 and you'll see what I'm seeing in phase 2 (presumably).

    With my last motherboard it took ~15 seconds for a develop mode view - I've been so happy with the improvement that I hadnt been scrutinizing performance. In fact, it was trying to answer other peoples questions that got me looking at it more closely. My phase 2 is very blurry - its worse than "not so sharp" - I'll show ya in a minute.

  • Found a significant LR4 speedup - regenerate ACR cache

    Like many others here, after I upgraded to LR4, my performance went completely to hell.  It would literally take 9-10 seconds just to advance to the next image in the Develop module.  Marking an image for deletion would take 15 seconds.  I'm running a Q6600 - quadcore processor at 2.4GHz with 4GB RAM on Vista 32-bit.  By today's standards, it's not a terrific speed demon, but no slouch either and it worked fine for several years with LR3.  I mostly process D300 RAW files.
    After reading a lot of posts here about crummy performance, I wasn't able to find any tips that might help so I started poking around in the preferences/settings.  One thing I discovered was that my ACR cache was perhaps getting starved a bit for size.  It was set to 50GB, but it was on a drive that might not have that much free space.  I reasoned that if the cache couldn't quite be large enough to hold my working directory of images, then it might be thrashing and pretty much never loading from the cache.
    So, I moved my ACR cache to a new drive with lots of free space, increased the cache size to 100GB and then proceeded to regenerate the cache for the directory of 500 images I was working on by making a 2 point change in sharpening on all images and then regenerating all previews.  It took awhile to make all new previews for all the images, but after doing so - WOW my old performance was back again, even running on the new 2012 process.  I could move from one image to the next in the develop module in under a second.
    So, I don't know if it was low disk space, some sort of general caching problem, a corrupted cache or what, but after making those ACR cache changes, my LR4 performance is back neaer where the LR3 performance was.

    I have significant problems with near lock up in LR4 and have posted a discussion (it takes HOURS to import a couple hundred photos, minutes to load a photo just to view sometimes).  There have been no suggestions in reply to my original post -so maybe I can tag along here for some assistance?  Please? In LR, I opened the preferences (in Edit) and found that my Camera Raw Cache Settings were set at 1. GB maximum size, with the Video Cache set at 3.0 GB.  Hate to be dense, but I want to be sure I am not causing with more problems.....so, I should purge cache on each first, then change maximum size to 100? Since mine is set on 1. that seems pretty drastic, since my system says it has 308 GB free out of 465. 
    I have an HP server which I can can use (instead of the default C drive which it is set to). My system is less than 2 years old,  Windows 7- my processor is AMD Phenon(tm)  II x 4 925 Processor.  My hard drive back up has plenty of space -  4 terabytes.  Could Purge Cache and change these settings in any way cause another problem?  Should I change this to my hard drive -if so, would I use the same file location, except change to my server? 
    I have a Mac with the same cache settings, and it is lightening fast with LR3 compared to this.  I really don't know how to ask the right questions -my knowlege about computer systems, etc. is limited.
    One of my symptoms before fixing my cache was that importing was ridiculously slow (hours to import a few hundred images) so my experience does overlap with your symptoms.   How big a cache you need depends upon what you're processing and how many you work on at a time.  I presume the ACR cache (which is what I wrote about here) is mostly (or perhaps only) used for RAW images so it's most applicable if you shoot RAW.  Secondly, you need to think about your working set of images (how many you work on at a time).  What you want is a cache that is big enough to hold cached versions of every image in the set you work on.  That way, you can import the images into LR which will build previews and fill the cache in the process and then you can go back and work on your images and they will all be precached.  If your cache size is a little smaller that the working set, then by the time it gets to the end of building previews, the cache is full and it's kicking your first images out of the cache.  Then, you go to start working on the first images and there's nothing cached so it keeps having to back to the RAW file for every new image.  This is when it's going to be really slow.  OTOH, if your cache is larger than your working set, then all images you are working on in a particular shoot can stay in the cache for the duration of working on them.
    I think the norm for the ACR cache is around 50GB just to make sure it's big enough for a large shoot.  1GB is miniscule and won't be doing you much good at all.

  • Why does my mac mail constantly rebuild itself in the area called Mail Activity?

    My Mail is constantly rebuilding itself. When at home with a super fast internet connection, it's not big deal, but when travleing and using a slower connection the activity runs all the time.  Seems to me that it's taking up resources. I have Gmail and Yahoo accounts set up and sometimes it's downloading 12,000 messages!  Is this a problem?  What happens if I hit the "x" or cancel button during a download?

    Sounds more like a server issue rather than rebuilidng and as a matter of fact, an actual rebuild might help.

  • Patch Policies not Caching on Rebuild

    I'm gone through my second "patch Tuesday" using the new Patch Policy feature in ZCM 11.3 and I'm trying to figure out why my patch criteria does not appear to be caching what I am expecting. From the Rules tab, I've set my criteria for one of my rules as follows:
    Age >= 7 Days
    Vendor = Microsoft Corp.
    Patch Name Contains 8.1 x64
    Patch Name Does not contain Language Pack
    With these rules I see 37 patches in the list of included Patches. Now looking at these patches, I have 20 patches that were released on May 13, and of those 11 are showing with the green icon showing that they were downloaded and the rest are orange. When I click the option to rebuild the package, none of my orange patches are changing over to green. There are a mix of Critical and Recommended patches so it isn't something related to Impact of the patch, I'm just finding it odd that some critical patches are showing as being included but not becoming available.
    Is ZCM just smarter than I'm giving it credit for and it is recognizing that an older dependent patch that may not have been applied and has been replaced so it isn't bothering to capture these subsequent patches that don't apply to my systems? If so, why are they even showing up in the first place?

  • BRIDGE CS6 - Move CACHE without rebuilding/indexing

    Hi,
    been trying to find answers for this in the forum, but could not, so here we go.
    I have setup a SSD RAID0 system to use as dedicated CACHE drive.
    I have A LOT of files (and I mean A LOT!!) on my computer as I am working a lot with timelapse-photography.
    For after effects /  premiere, I have moved the cache files from the old location to a new location on the new speed-devil-SSD-Cache system, without problems.
    However, when I try to move the Bridge cache folder, and then specify that new location in Bridge, it seem like Bridge is NOT picking up the files which is allready stored on the new location.
    Actually Bridge starts to rebuild the cache and read all files again. This is VERY time-consuming, due to my very large number of files on my system.
    Now If could leave Bridge rebuilding over night, I could probably survive. The problem is that Bridge does not start to fetch thumbs and rebuild until I enter that specific folder again with Bridge.
    So my question is; How can I make Bridge believe the new cache location is still the old one, so that I don't have to rebuild all my cache files again?
    For now I switched back to the old cace location for Bridge, until I figure out how to overcome this rather strange behaviour of Bridge..
    Surely there has to be an elegant way of moving your cache in Bridge withough having to rebuild all over again..
    Thank you for any advise..
    Ola

    Thanks guys!!
    The problem is, the apporach you are suggesting, will make Bridge index/cache ALL of my files, and although I have A LOT of files that are indexed, I have equally many or maybe more, that are not, and need not to be indexed..
    That is why I would like to MOVE the and keep the existing library so that I don't cache files I do not need to be cached...
    I guess I will just have to bite the bitter apple and delete the old cache, sit and wait for each folder I access, one by one...
    This is something that needs to be adressed by Adobe...

  • Constantly rebuilding Iphoto 09

    Since I upgraded my computer to Iphoto 09 i've had problems opening the program. I've been advised to rebuild, which I have, but i'm constantly having to do so. I've also installed the Iphoto library manager. At this point all I get it an empty grey window when I try to open the program, followed shortly by the pinwheel that remains on my screen until I force quit the program. I really don't want to rebuild again. Please advise what other options there are and what can I do to get Iphoto to work correctly. Thank you

    I have the same problem. I have a 1TB iMAC with 800 GB free space. I use iphoto manager and have 4 iPhoto libraries.
    When I have this problem, I rebuild the library using iPhoto Manager and it works fine for a few days, but if I manipulate the photos (ie, use faces, import, etc), then the next time I try to open the library, I get a grey empty iphoto screen, no iphoto menu bar, a pinwheel, then after abou 20-30 seconds, the grey screen disappears. Iphoto never opens.
    Any ideas?

  • ACR v 6.7.0.339 rebuilds previews for one folder repeatedly

    I started having this situation after the 6.7 update to ACR, in the folder I was working on at the time of the update. The symptom is that after all the previews are built, any action (ex. display a preview) causes Thumbnails, Previews, and 100% previews to start rebuilding, entire or in part at different times. I have tried a number of things to try to fix this, including Prefs. reset in Bridge and PS CS5, flushing Bridge and ACR caches, creating a new (DATE) folder for the images, and manually deleting the .BridgeCache and .BridgeCacheT files from the folder. I have done an in-place reinstall of Photoshop, and an uninstall-reinstall. There was one file in the group that was rejecting key words, but I resolved that by deleting its XMP file and regenerating it. Turning off Open GL acceleration makes no difference.
    Thanks!

    Follow up:
    I neglected to mention that Bridge has crashed several times, sometimes seeming to take Firefox down with it. I did some searching in the system logs, and found AppCrash reports, mostly of two types. Since the first report above, I have updated the graphics driver to the most recent release.
    Examples are below:

    I have sorted out examples of XMP files which work and don't work correctly. I am not sure if the way it pasted in is correct. HTML seems to be taking formatting instructions from it. If this doesn't pass muster I will upload a ZIP file somewhere. I tried to compare these, but I'm not really used to reading that kind of text and did not sort anything out that was not an obvious setting. I greatly appreciate any guidance anyone can give. Thanks!
