After Motion Export - Performance is terrible and slow
Everything works great with my entire FCS but once I export anything complicated from Motion with nothing open or a bunch of applications open my imac slows down tremendously. nothing but the color wheel and I cant even expose' without a 1-2 second pause on all switching of applications, saving anything... This lasts till I restart.
iMac 2.4 Core 2 Duo 4GB ram 640HD.
Final Cut Studio (3) up to date.
Anyone else having this issue? Thanks!
A couple thoughts:
1: Are you saying that AFTER (like the title suggests) the export that your system is still unresponsive?
2: Does the same thing happen if you export through compressor?
3: Try and clear your RAM in the "Mark>RAM Preview" menu
It sounds like your iMac is choking without memory. Not sure how much you have but there's never enough for Motion.

FRAME "GLITCH" AFTER MOTION EXPORT
HELP!
I'm having a problem with some sort of frame "glitch" when I export my Motion project to Quicktime.
Everything will be playing back fine & then there will be one frame that looks all whacked out.
Just for that split second.
It's in different places every time I re-export.
You can view the bad frame here: http://www.photropics.com/bad.jpg
& the good frame(right after it) here: http://www.photropics.com/good.jpg
This project has a lot of movement going on including a particle emitter i the first 20 seconds but that's not where the glitch is.
You'll see that in this particular export, the glitch is actually in a clone layer that I'm using as a reflection of a video.
This is inconsistent though, it can be in different places in the scene in every export.
Export settings are on RENDER BEST / ANIMATION / FULL RESOLUTION / 720 X 480
Same as my setup.
Very frustrated!
I'm starting to question my machine.
I'm working with a PPC G5 Dual 2 Hhz. machine with 3 gigs of RAM.
It's got the original graphics card in it, which is always a problem for me but will that affect the export quality?
I know it's not an Intel machine but it should be able to handle a 1.5 minute clip from Motion. Shouldn't it?
I'll have a new Intel machine in a few months but need some help with making this work if possible.
Thanks in advance.
Any help is appreciated.
JRMThanks for the response Adam.
I didn't mean to be so vague about the details originally.
I am exporting out of motion as a Quicktime movie to eventually be brought into DVD Studio Pro & burned onto DVD.
I tried bringing the file directly into DVDSP as a Motion project & it took 18 hours to do a build but
as a QT Movie, it only takes minutes.
If I change the animation codec, will I lose quality? I want it to be as clean as possible.
I have cleared the RAM cache & with the same result.
I might try the FCP import idea but I haven't used Compressor before. The last time worked with video & I used FCP was when it was in version 2 so I'm somewhat new. I've crashed coursed in FCP 6, LiveType, Motion & DVDSP so I just haven't gotten to Compressor yet.
Tell me though, did you look at the samples I uploaded?
Is this just a weird dropped frame or what do you think?
I also tried exporting at Half size & the glitch is still there & in the same place.
I thought it might be something within my motion project in conflict but there's nothing in the particular spot that is starting or stopping or anything.
Anyway, thanks again.

This is Ridiculous Apple! -
Is there a way to speed up a Mac (similar to de-fragging on a PC)? Mine has gotten slower and slower over time.
When memory/disc comes close to full would that have an effect on performance? How should I determine what programs/software to remove and free space?Things You Can Do To Resolve Slow Downs
If your computer seems to be running slower here are some things you can do:
Start with visits to: OS X Maintenance - MacAttorney;
The X Lab: The X-FAQs;
The Safe Mac » Mac Performance Guide;
The Safe Mac » The myth of the dirty Mac;
Mac maintenance Quick Assist.
Boot into Safe Mode then repair your hard drive and permissions:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions Pre-Lion
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
Repair the Hard Drive - Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the Utilites Menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD disk icon and click on the arrow button below.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
Restart your computer normally and see if this has helped any. Next do some maintenance:
For situations Disk Utility cannot handle the best third-party utility is Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible.
Note: Alsoft ships DW on a bootable DVD that will startup Macs running Snow Leopard or earlier. It cannot start Macs that came with Lion or later pre-installed, however, DW will work on those models.
Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep. Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced since Tiger. These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard or later and should not be installed.
OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive.
Helpful Links Regarding Malware Protection
An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.
See these Apple articles:
Mac OS X Snow Leopard and malware detection
OS X Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
OS X Mountain Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
About file quarantine in OS X
If you require anti-virus protection I recommend using VirusBarrier Express 1.1.6 or Dr.Web Light both from the App Store. They're both free, and since they're from the App Store, they won't destabilize the system. (Thank you to Thomas Reed for these recommendations.)
Troubleshooting Applications
I recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX, Mavericks Cache Cleaner, or Cocktail that you can use for removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc. Corrupted cache, log, or temporary files can cause application or OS X crashes as well as kernel panics.
If you have Snow Leopard or Leopard, then for similar repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line. Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. Applejack does not work with Lion and later.
Basic Backup
For some people Time Machine will be more than adequate. Time Machine is part of OS X. There are two components:
1. A Time Machine preferences panel as part of System Preferences;
2. A Time Machine application located in the Applications folder. It is
used to manage backups and to restore backups. Time Machine
requires a backup drive that is at least twice the capacity of the
drive being backed up.
Alternatively, get an external drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Carbon Copy Cloner
2. Get Backup
3. Deja Vu
4. SuperDuper!
5. Synk Pro
6. Tri-Backup
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore. Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files. For help with using Time Machine visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ for help with all things Time Machine.
Referenced software can be found at MacUpdate.
Additional Hints
Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity as free space.
Add more RAM. If your computer has less than 2 GBs of RAM and you are using OS X Leopard or later, then you can do with more RAM. Snow Leopard and Lion work much better with 4 GBs of RAM than their system minimums. The more concurrent applications you tend to use the more RAM you should have.
Always maintain at least 15 GBs or 10% of your hard drive's capacity as free space, whichever is greater. OS X is frequently accessing your hard drive, so providing adequate free space will keep things from slowing down.
Check for applications that may be hogging the CPU:
Pre-Mavericks
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
Mavericks and later
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the View menu. Click on the CPU tab in the toolbar. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
Often this problem occurs because of a corrupted cache or preferences file or an attempt to write to a corrupted log file. -
Hi everyone, I been noticing my MacBook pro getting very slow in games like diablo 3 and Starcraft. This MacBook pro was bought a year ago. It is running i7 sandy bridge with a 128 Ssd. I did install optibay with a monetux xt hard drive in it.
It could run ultra setting on Starcraft no problem and is very smooth when I first got it. Lately I got diablo 3, and it gets very slow. I had to change all the graphics setting to low. It is not slow in the beginning, but it gets very slow after a while. It is like slow motion!!! Even when is low, it is still very laggy in game. I tried to repair the disk and clean up the laptop with onyx and still doing the same thing. I even try to reboot when is slow, but same thing after I reboot. I guess the MBP still hot.
Also I am running in lion!If it's a 13" MBP you don't have the more powerful dedicated graphics and there is nothing you can do but be mad at Apple for deceiving you that the 13" MacBook Pro was capable of extreme graphics.
Only the 15" and 17" have the more powerful dedicated graphics in addition to the CPU graphics.

Running Aperture and Slow Performance on MacBook Pro
I am running a MacBook pro w 4 GM interal memory, lost of HD space, and OS 10.8.4. Often when working with Aperture system performance seems very sluggish to the point of becoming unuseable. Export of 20 images to mail can take 10 min. It just becomes so slow as if strangled for memory. I find I shut down other apps but don't think this should be necessary with current OS technology. Any suggestions? Thanks
Have you checked what it going on, when Aperture becomes sluggish?
I'd recommend to launch some diagnostic tools, if you have not already done so:
Aperture's own "Activity Viewer": From the main menu bar: Window > Show Activity
This will tell you, how Aperture is spending its time : rendering, previews, scanning for faces or places, raw processing. Inparticulur, check, if Aperture is hanging while processing one particular image or video over and over again.
The Console window: Launch it from the Utilities folder in the Applications folder. Look, if you see error messages or warnings in this window, when Aperture starts to hang.
The Activity Monitor: Launch it from the Utilities folder in the Applications folder. This window will tell you, which processes are using the cpu, the RAM, and doing page outs to the disk. You can see, if other processing are competing with Aperture and slowing it down, orif Aperture is starved for memory.
How large are images? Do you have very large raw files or scans, or are your photos moderately sized?
Is your library on the internal drive or an external drive?
Do you see this slowness only with your main Aperture library, or also, if you create a new, small library with a few test images?
Regards

So I just got motion and I created a 1080i60 HDV project and imported my clip (4 seconds). I slowed it to 25 percent speed and used optical flow. once it finished I exported it as HDV1080i60 and tried to play it in quicktime (because it was uber jerky in Motion to the point where I couldn't enjoy even a small portion of the clip.) it playedback just as jerky in quicktime and it also played back in a 4:3 aspect ratio.
I brought it into FCP and it seemed the proper aspect. so I tried to export again and it went back to 4:3.
is there a particular thing I'm not doing?In your EXPORT Settings, make sure your field dominance is set to none. and tick the anamorphic option. If you already did that then when watching in QT: "press Apple J" and under "presentation tick "encoded or clean"
Other that that welcome to the world of HDV!

IOS8 Slow Performance, Keyboard Bugs and App Crashes on iPhone 5
Since updating my iPhone 5 to iOS8, performance has slowed considerably: Apps take longer to launch and interface animation stutters.
When turning the phone on and off, the screen goes black - I have to keep pressing the on/off sleep/wake switch to get the screen to illuminate.
Typing this in landscape on my iPhone 5 (using the standard keyboard - I've not tried installing any third party keyboards yet) is taking ages: There are now only two lines of text visible due to the word-suggestion feature. I've just noticed as I type this that the text display isn't automatically scrolling, so unless I manually scroll down the window, I can't see what I'm typing!
Positioning the magnifying glass is challenging - its position is not following my finger! The behaviour of the backspace is also unpredictable . . . and I am now typing this on my Mac because Safari crashed mid-sentene ! (Thank goodness this site auto-saves - I didn't have to start again when I logged into my Mac!)
I like all the new iOS8 features (although the key feature for me - the health app - is not linking to any fitness apps yet due to an Apple-acknowledged bug). But the performance hit, bugs and app crashing created by the iOS8 upgrade means I now want to return to iOS7.
I'm surprised at these issues because, unlike previous iOS releases, IOS 8 was in public beta for a few months, as well as being with developers since WWDC.
If Apple are going to move iOS deeper into the enterprise (with IBM for example) its needs to prioritise stability - even if it means moving from an annual upgrade cycle. Apple hasn't managed this with Mac OS - the last three Mac OS updates have not been usable in an enterprise/Pro App environment until around 9 months after their release.
Message was edited by: KWiPodios8 for my iphone 5 = crashes, hot phone, restarts, dropped calls, funny looking fuzzy 'senior picture screen' with frost on the perimeter..... Just opening 'message' for texts takes 3-4 seconds to load, where previously, it was milliseconds latency speeds. I think they pressed this OS beyond the reasonable functional limit of the hardware (phones), especially with the older phones and/or phones with less memory.
It's like an athlete on steroids, the bones can't handle the force of the muscles and something is gonna BREAK!
When did we ever come to think that $400 phones would become 2-4 year disposable items and revere at the glory of it all! And whether we realize it or not, it's being shoved down our throats.
Just fix the OS please so my phone can work for me as it has in the past.
For the $$ being paid out, we shouldn't have to reset, restart, restore......

W520 with 32 GB RAM and slow performance
hi all
I post this info for those of you running into similar problems when upgrading the W520 to 32 GB RAM.
I've a W520 2720QM with Windows Server 2008R2 installed which I upgraded to 32 GB RAM with 4x8 GB CORSAIR Value RAM Modules. After doing this, the Laptop was incredibliy slow on performance and starting of programs took a long time.
I solved this with changing the Grafic option from Optiums to Integrated in the BIOS (1.35). After that, performace is back as before. In the BIOS there is a message saying, that the Optimus setting should be set only if Windows 7 is installed. As I'm not running W7 I had to change the setting.Hmm, currently another guy with 24GB of RAM have similar issues here

T520 - 42435gg / Sound stutter and slow Graphic performance with Intel Rapid Storage AHCI Driver
Hi everybody,
I have serious Problems with my 42435gg
Any time I install the Intel Storage AHCI Driver (I've tried plenty of different versions) which is suggested by System Update I experience a horrible Sound stutter and slow Graphic performance in Windows 7 64-Bit.
The funny thing in this case: If the external e-sata port is connected the problems do not occur. If the port is unused again, the stutter begins immediately.
The only thing I can do is using the Windows internal Storage Driver with which I am not able to use my DVD recorder for example.
The device was sent to lenovo for hardware testing with no result. It was sent back without any repairing.
Anybody experience on this?
Kind regards,
DanielDid you try the 11.5 RST beta? Load up DPClat and see if DPC conditions are favorable.
What are you using to check graphics performance?

After I exported a PDF to a Word doc and downloaded it, I can't get the pointer tool to work.
After I exported a PDF to a Word doc and downloaded it, I can't get the pointer tool to work. When I click on the document text, the only tool is the "move" tool. I can't edit or select text. Please advise.
Version of Adobe: Adobe ExportPDF (not Pro)
Operating system: Windows 8.1
Steps I am taking: When the PDF file is selected and opened, I clicked on Tools menu on right side of the screen; then I clicked on Select PDF file; then under Convert To, I selected Microsoft Word (*.docx); then I hit the box below that; and clicked Convert. I then see the message that says it is Converting to Export PDF Online. Then I see a link below that, that says Download Converted File. This takes me online to Adobe Acrobat .com, where, I see the command, Export PDF, and see a blue box on the same screen that says Select PDF Files to Export. I click on the thumbnail of the file I want to export. This brings up, online, a screen containing the file I wanted to convert to Word. Then, on the same screen, I click on the icon on the right hand of the screen that says Download. then I click on the box on the bottom the screen that contains the Word document I had wanted to convert. This brings up the Word doc. in Compatibility Mode the latest Word version, which I am unfamiliar with and which has a Picture Tools tab that I cannot escape from and I cannot get any selection tool other that the Move pointer, and I cannot find the Select text pointer to select any text on the page. I don't want this Word version and do not know how to return to the old version of Word that I am familiar with.
Can you help me, please?

File size changing when pass through after effects (180Mb file goes in and comes out 33GB on export)
im processing a video recorded of an interview where the lighting was not very good on the interviewee
im brightening up the light on the interviewees face
the file was a 180Mb H.264 file on import
when i export the file its coming out at 33GB in size.... im not sure why this is
i have chosen the default setting "lossless" as the format for export
i just want the file to export the same size and quality as it was when i imported it
what options should i choose for this? AE does not seem to tell me how big the end file will be and it takes 1 hour and half to process this 2 minute interview so it will take me an awfull long time to get to the bottom of this if i try by myself
thanksIt doesn't "increase" the file size. You're making a brand new file.
What you put into After Effects has nothing to do with the resulting file. You can have an AE composition with no footage whatsoever and the resulting file will be much larger than 0!
After Effects works internally with completely uncompressed pixel data, so no matter what you toss into it, it produces whatever you tell it to produce. As Mylenium points out, you made an uncompressed final file.
Your original video file is VERY compressed. So, of COURSE uncompressed video is going to look massive by comparison.
Read Mylenium's link to understand a bit more and go here to learn AE: Getting started with After Effects There are lots of "gotchas" like this that'll bit your butt if you skip this basic training stuff. -

My Imovie looks great on mac but it is discolored and grainy after I export to dvd.
My Imovie looks great on mac but it is discolored and grainy after I export to dvd. I need help, it looks awful when projected even playing from my mac.
It's my understanding based on what another long time contributor stated that Share to iDVD converts direct to a MPEG-2 format and drops it directly into the iDVD Project for you. Share to Media Browser saves it to .MP4 (actually .m4v which is what apple uses for iTunes video,etc) then that gets converted by iDVD into MPEG-2. So something about the export direct to MPEG-2 when you choose Share to iDVD is introducing the problem. That's why Share to Media Browser seems to get around that limitation, it uses a different encoding path altogether.
