Acrobat XI very sluggish on Yoga 3 Pro

I have noticed that Adobe Acrobat XI is very sluggish on the Yoga 3 Pro. Specifically laggy when zooming in and out, panning, scrolling, and full screen. This is especially apparent with full screen and quite annoying in tablet mode. However, using the Microsoft Reader app with the same PDF files does NOT experience this lag.
What I then discovered is that this has something to do with the Core M processor and it getting its power limited. If you change the power plan in OneKey Optimizer to High Performance (from Balanced, for example), Acrobat all of a sudden becomes quite snappy.
When in tablet mode, if you simply want to read a PDF file (and use Acrobat), you do not need "high performance", so to extend the unfortunately bad battery life of the Yoga 3 Pro, you would want to put it in Balanced or Power Saver -- this should still be sufficient to read PDF files, but it is not the case with Acrobat XI unfortunately.
I'm not sure which specific CPU limiting feature of the power plan is causing this issue in Acrobat, but I thought I would post this because I couldn't find anything on the internet on this issue.

Acrobat XI Very Sluggish After Update Ver. 11.0.09

After ver. 11.0.09 updated my Acrobat Pro XI, the program operates very sluggishly. In a multi-page PDF, there is a several seconds lag when scrolling through pages. And as one page changes to the next, there is always a "ghost" remnant of the page bottom before the next page appears. Also, when I have the thumbnails viewer open on the left and highlight a new page, there is a longish delay of several seconds before the full view of the page opens up. And sometimes when opening Acrobat XI, the entire viewing area is just white (although some of the menu bars is visible) for several seconds before the program interface fills out. All in all, with the update to ver. 11.0.09, my Acrobat XI has become a lot slower and downright slow. None of this existed before the update 11.0.09. (I actually uninstalled the Acrobat XI program and reinstalled to see if the program's function would improve, but no such luck.) Is there any way to fix the slowness of the program or restore it to its efficient operation level before ver. 11.0.09?

So, just for everyone's FYI: if you weren't having problems with Acrobat Pro XI before the 11.0.09 update and you are now having issues because of 11.0.09, like I was with totally sluggish and non-responsive commands and performance, you might want to do what I did. I completely uninstalled Acrobat XI, ran the Adobe Acrobat clean up tool, then re-installed Acrobat XI and updated it manually starting with 11.0.01, then 11.0.02, then 11.0.03, skipped 11.0.04 (issues it created), skipped 11.0.05 (won't install without .04), then installed 11.0.06, 11.0.07, and 11.0.08. Did not bother with 11.0.09. What is important to remember, I think, is that just because Adobe puts out an Update does not mean you need to install the Update, especially if you are not having any usage issues or performance problems. So, I am back to Acrobat XI, ver. 11.0.08 and totally satisfied with the efficient and great performance that I am getting out of the program.

Lion very sluggish on MacBook Pro

I have a 2.53 Ghz MacBook Pro (mid-2009) that has been getting increasingly sluggish since installing Lion. I get frequent spinning beachballs in Safari, MS Outlook, Powerpoint. From the login screem, once I select my user icon, it takes 15-20 seconds for the password dialog to appear. Activity Monitor shows no runaway processes, CPU utilization remains low and I have close to a gig (out of 4) of free memory. I have close to 30Gb free disk. S.M.A.R.T. shows no disk problemns. Things I've tried:
Repair permissions
Verify disk
Starting in safe mode
Create a new user
CleanMyMac
Reset PRAM
Reset SMC
Reinstall MS Office
Reinstall Lion
I am running bootcamp and starting to native Windows seems to be fine. My son's MacBook (mid-2008, removeable battery) is displaying similar issues.
Ideas??

Preview very sluggish on MacBook Pro. Move a bar and the umbrella turns a few seconds. Any ideas? I don't want to update my iMac until this one is solved.

MacBook Pro with 4GB of memory and a 2.3 GHz Intel. No other program running other than Preview.

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) on the advice of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
Paste into the window of another application.
Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Why is my mac book pro very sluggish in opening windows/color wheel

why does my Mac Book Pro acting slow when ever I'm working in multiple windows, going back and forth,
it take for ever to open up load the pages, and there is a rainbow color wheel spinning, not sure what is going on with it.
please help, and my 3 year warrant has just expired. please help.

Check to see how much free space there is on the startup disk.
Click the Apple menu icon top left corner in your Desktop. From the drop down menu click About This Mac > More Info then select the Storage tab.
Make sure there's at least 15% available storage space.

Premier Pro CS6 Very Sluggish

Good Day.
I'm running PP CS6 on a mostly home-built PC under Win 7 Pro, v.6.1.7601, Serv Pack 1, build 7601.
System is a64 bit Intel Core i7 970 @ 3.GHz, 3201Mhz, 6 Cores, 12 Logic
24GB RAM
NVIDIA Quadro 4000 w/2GB, Driver is 9.18.13.697
Internal HDD is a 10KRPM Velocerapter (as I recall)
External drives are a 4TB Glyph ForteRaid via eSata.
My media is footage direct from my Canon 5DM3 - no transcoding.
My problem is my PP timeline is VERY sluggish (compared to what I'm used to in Sony Vegas Pro and FCP 7). It can take a half to a full second for an action to happen. For example, if I click on the edge of a clip to trim it, it can take that long to register the click, and then again that long to move with my mouse. Similarly, if I click on the timeline to reposition the CTI (yes, I'm a bit OldSchool), it can take a full second to catch up with me. Same with playback. Once it starts playing, I get great fps, but it's just getting there that's the issue.
I have NOT yet tried transcoading the footage to Cineform or similar, but from EVERYTHING I've read, this kind of footage should be zero problem for CS6.
If you would be so kind as to guide me as to what I might look at to make my system a bit more snappy.
Also, I live in Southern California. Are there any reputable Adobe Gurus out here that I can take my system to (as mentioned, it's homebuilt) where they can "tune me up" and see that I'm running everything in the most efficient manor? I have some good projects upcoming (90 min HowTo videos, etc) that I would very much like to be running at peaque efficiency with.
Thanks very much for any and all suggestions, thoughts, ideas and guidance!

Ok... just for you I rebooted to Win7 to test.
I have a 42 minute Timeline with a few
cuts back and forth between two AVCHD sources.
One is the sample from ExactImage that has been confirmed
as being affected by the (now fixed) AVCHD bug in CS6.
The other is a sample provided by Fuzzy Barsik.
Both clips can be found for download in this thread:
CS6 / AVCHD / Spanned Clip Bug / What Cameras
And Media Types Are Affected?
http://forums.adobe.com/message/5596038#5596038
When I jump back and forth in the Timeline from cut to cut
and immediately hit play, I don't see the lags you describe.
I am running CS6.0.5.

I don't have MPE enabled:

Yoga Pro 3 - Wifi dropped connections; refuses to reconnect

First day of owning my Yoga Pro 3. Has anyone experienced intermittent wifi failures?
I've had trouble on both access points that I have at home. One is an older 802.11b router (set to channel 1), and other a D-Link815 dual-band bgn router (with the 2.4Ghz radio set to channel 11).
I've experienced problems using both routers on either channel and when using the 5Ghz spectrum as well.
Connectivity with either access point lasts from 5 mins to 30+ mins (in limited time I had available to use it so far).
Far more frustrating is that when dropped, the YP3 refuses to reconnect. Manually selecting the access point in the network connections charm and clicking "Connect" results in failed attempts at connecting and system will refuse to connect to any Access Point for a random amount of time. At one point I had attempted to reconnect about 20+ times before it did reconnect.
Obviously, tried rebooting without any change in behavior.
I uninstalled the Broadcom wireless driver (the system the auto-installed a Microsoft driver which, from the version number, appeared to be an older version of the same Broadcom driver as they used a very similar numbering scheme and were very close). No change. I reverted that change.
Are there known issues with these wifi cards/drivers accessing open wifi connections? I live in the middle of no-where, so have had no compelling reason to secure the access points.
What else should I try?
Thanks

My WiFi connects fine @ 2.4 GHz only Access Point (netgear wnr2000 v2) 4 rooms away (~ 35 feet and my Linksys router is on the same room as me so I get 866.5 Mbps all the time), giving me fluctuating connection speed from 243 to 300 Mbps. I generally don't use the 2.4 GHz band but I occasionally try it to check for stability. It's working fine but there's too much 2.4 GHz clients in our area so I use 5 GHz for Netflix, Hulu steaming where low latency stability is needed.
Definitely try reseating the antenna so you can rule that out. If you still can't connect @ 2.4 GHz, try other 2.4 Ghz access points or it's just that you get a defectve Broadcom 4352 card or it might be even Windows 8.1 drivers itself.

After beat mapping Logic is very sluggish and unresponsive

I recorded a track without a click, very rubato. Then I manually played in 1/4 notes on a midi track. I used "Beats from region" on the beat mapping track. After that when the song starts to play, if I click on a track or do just about anything with the computer keyboard I get the beach ball and Logic becomes very sluggish or unresponsive. It I revert back to the previous version of the song, without the beat mapping, there is no problem. I did notice that the rubato tempo was screwing up the beat sync on the tape delay plugin, so I put it in bypass, then removed them.

In any case, personally, I avoid to use automatic function suach as Audio to Midi or auto beat mapping...
I'm an old... ... Old school musician...
when I have a song that requires rubato parts and "rallentando" or "accellerando"...
I write the score as Conductor of myself...
I prepare the song by manually editing tempo changes before start recording...
This way is very good also for musician, amateurs, students...
after editing tempo changes Logic will be your personal orchestral conductor trainer...
and will be able to test skill of performer...
the word "PRO" in Logic is focused to professional musician... including students and amateurs can enjoy a fabulous experience ... it is very similar as the musicians or soloists when they are in a professional production environment.
(this is the OLD SCHOOL way)
just my 2 cents

Any fix for USB 3 port disconnects with Plugable GigE adapter on Yoga Pro 2

Hi,
Does anyone know if there is a fix intended from lenovo on this?
Very pleased overall with my Yoga Pro 2, however one issue is that I sometimes need to use a GigE adapter and the Plugable USB3-E1000 I bought will disconnect periodically - mainly an issue when using the link heavily.
It is acknowledged by plugable to be an issue:

Symptoms include sudden loss of connectivity and failing of transferring files across a network. The current workaround is to use the USB 2.0 port. We are working with ASIX and Lenovo to resolve this known bug."
It transmits at about 1.5MB/sec on USB2 and 15MB/sec on USB3 so a clear preference to use USB3!
Thanks

PS RUnning windows 8. fully patched, have updated BIOS from 1.15 to 1.16

If used an external USB Wifi adapter that worked fine (Asus).
This Linksys should also work in the Yoga.

Yoga Pro 2 on External Monitor...but low resolution

Although my Yoga Pro 2 connects properly to my Viewsonic monitor (thank you, Monoprice, for the micro-HDMI adapter and the HDMI to DVI cable), the best resolution I can get is 1440x900 (the native resolution of the last computer connected) which makes everything look GIGANTIC on the monitor and doesn't show the detail of the 3200X1800 Yoga Pro screen.
Intel drivers are updated, Viewsonic monitor drivers for win8/x64 all set. Viewsonic says it a Lenovo issue...Lenovo so far can't help me. I have tried changing view/zoom in every software program and app, but that's not the solution I want. Even 1900X ???? would be better.

PATIENCE...
First, it is most likely the microHDMI fitting inside the yogapro. It is very deep. When you put a micro HDMI adapter in to connect it to whatever it needs to connect to to ultimately reach your monitor, it must be firmly seated.And it feeels like it is..but probably not.
Monoprice.com offers 2 microHDMI adapters: part 7703 and part 7603. Either one should work...but you may need to take an emery board or nail file to the plastic housing around the actual part that goes into your machine. That's because you need a long reach to the actual socket inside the YP2. From there I use the monoprice HDMI-DVI cable to attach to my monitor (LG, but not important. Only important thing is that the ratio of width/height is 1.7778, or 1920x1080 etc)
Make sure the monitor is turned on....and start JIGGLING. Be 100% sure that the YP2 is sitting on a very hard surface, granite, corian, etc...and that the machine doesn't get moved around at all. Do not put it on a cooling pad, or a place mat or anything squooshy like that. Keep a bunch on small thin things around as you jiggle...because at some point you are going to succeed and you must not jar anything as you put the need supports to maintain that crucial angle VERY CAREFULLY in place. It is tedious...but the result is worth it. And then deciding on your personalization will keep you busy.
As much as I like the YP2 as a computer...I have never used it as a tablet (iPhone/Kindle user) and probably never will because the task of getting the Micro HDMI adapter seated properly is something that is hateful enough that I don't want to move the machine once it is working with the external monitor. Furthermore, the personalization setting are different for me with/without external monitor and not worth the hassle.

Color has suddenly got very sluggish

Hello, i've just finished grading a project shot on RED camera in ProRes 422 HQ and even when I applied heavy grades to shots it still ran in real time, very smoothly.
Recently I've shot just a little project on a small AVCHD camera in ProRes 422 LT 1080i and sent to Color, it's very, very sluggish, bordering on un-usable!
I'm on an iMac with 2GB RAM and this has only happened since updating with the new Pro Apps update and 10.5.3 update. I'm working with the latest FCS3 and working out of a FiewWire 800 external hard drive.
Does any body have any help on why its suddenly gone sluggish? Has this been in discussion recently since the updates?
Cheers

I'd expect that a very highly compressed LongGOP format like AVCHD cross-formatted may give you more grief than even a high resolution format like ProResHQ. LT is still regarded as an "off-line" codec that is going to require a very large amount of decompressing before its usable by an app like COLOR.
That's what I'd suspect at first, but this is a low-end format that I don't deal with very often, if at all.

Trouble with Adobe Reader Touch on Lenovo Yoga Pro 2 in tablet mode. Pdf shows up as blank pages.

I have a Lenovo Yoga Pro 2 and when I change it to tablet mode and use the Adobe Reader Touch app, my pdf shows up as a blank page. I have installed other pdfs in the past and those show up fine. However, as of three days ago, whatever pdf I install shows up as blank on my screen. Is there a solution to fix this?

Could you please share your test file?

Yes, that appears how Mavericks works right now. However, you can open the Address Panel, select all your contacts, then click the To (or CC, or Bcc) buttons to move the selection to the address field.
If it is not already in the Toolbar, right-click on the Toolbar and select Customize Toolbar…
Then, drag the address panel up to wherever you want it.
You may also want to add it to the New Message window in the same way.
