After upgr. Mountain Lion numbers (iwork) eats cpu load 60%

After the Mountain Lion upgrade the numbers (iworks) cpu load is very high. When numbers is in focus the cpu load rises to >60% and the vent is starting after few seconds (macbook air). Any other user with this probs?

See this other discussion. You can see that you aren't alone, and the other group here has a worse problem, by 10%, than you.

  • Numbers does not open with the main user after installing mountain lion. It works flawlessly when I use the second account on my mac. What got corrupted in the admin-account, something in the user-library? How can I fix it? I´m kinda desperate...

    Numbers does not open with the main user after installing mountain lion. It works flawlessly when I use the second account on my mac. What got corrupted in the admin-account, something in the user-library? How can I fix it? I´m kinda desperate... (the same happens with the other iWork-Apps!)
    Looking forward to hearing from somebody with a littlemore expertise than me, Chris

    you can remove preferences files by navigating to the Preferences folder for your user as follows:
    0) Quit ALL iWork apps (Keynote, Pages and Numbers)
    1) from the Finder select the menu item "Go > Go To Folder…".  This will bring up a dialog:
    2) enter the path "~/Library/Preferences" (no double quotes)
    3) find the files:
    com.apple.iWork.Keynote.plist
    com.apple.iWork.Numbers.plist
    com.apple.iWork.Pages.plist
    and move these to the trash.  I would NOT empty until later.
    4) restart Numbers

  • Outlook (MS Office for MAC2011) appears to be using up to 67% of my CPU time even when I'm doing nothing.  Also, immediately after installing Mountain Lion, log-ins to the OS and normal operations noticeably slowed.  Suggestions?

    After installing Mountain Lion, I experienced a noticeable reduction in performance.  When I log-in, I must wait several seconds for the cursor to become effective in the log-in window.  When I come out of standby mode, I have the same issue.  Also, when looking at cpu usage, Outlook appears to be using up to 67% of cpu when not doing anything.  I'm not happy with this result.
    Does anyone have suggestions as to how to fix?

    Uninstall Office and reinstall it
    Use these instructions to do it and do not omit any of them.

  • Mail quits on startup, not on a guest account. This only happened after downloading Mountain Lion. What do I do to fix this?

    A couple of days after downloading Mountain Lion (10.8.3) Mail quits on startup. This doesn't happen on a quest account. I understand I'm not the only one with this problem (understatement). Has anybody found a solution yet??

    Launch the Console 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 Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.

  • Microsoft Word Intermittently Crashing After Installing Mountain Lion

    After installing Mountain Lion (10.8), Microsoft Word 2011 (v 14.2.3, currently the latest update) is intermittently crashing.  This is not the error I have seen reported elsewhere where Word crashses on start up.  Rather, it starts fine, runs for a while, then suddently freezes and gives an error message.  Unfortunately I do not remember the full error message, but it stated something like "Microsoft Office  cannot write to the hard drive..."  I was prevously running Microsoft Office 2011 and had no problems until upgrading to Mountain Lion.
    So far I tried repaired disk permissions, both via the disk utility application and by restarting while holding down the option key to boot into disk utility directly.  This did not solve the problem.
    I also checked the activity monitor, because after crashing the computer starts running very hot.  The activity monitor shows a process called "mtmd", which is using 50-80% of the CPU.  This activity seems to persist until the computer is restarted again. 
    I also checked fonts in Font Book, but there appear to be no duplicate fonts, which I thought might cause a problem in Word. 
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi there,
    I've been getting the same error message for teh last few days. Word and Mountain Lion seemed to be playing well together until the last MS update (now running Word 2011 14.2.3). Fans go into overdrive and always a reboot required. Additionally, my DOCX is gone from where it was saved and in place only a word.tmp file remains. Sometimes I can open the temp file and recover all of the data but sometimes not. Luckily Time Machine has saved me on both occasions when the tmp file wouldn't open.
    Excel and Powerpoint are currently running very smoothly (in fact I dare say better than previously).
    I've tried running the DOCX from local drives and two external drives all with the identical results.  However, after this occurring for the nth time I noticed that it seems to occur when Time Machine kicks in. I'm presently testing it with Time Machine turned off and all seems ok. Though it does kind of defeat the purpose!

  • Bluetooth inactive after installing mountain lion - your computer restarted because of a problem

    Good day
    I read up on forums, and I think my reboot error is due to my bluetooth that is inactive, which happened after installing Mountain Lion
    My Bluetooth worked before under Snow Leopard
    I have deleted the file under library to no avail
    I have rebooted with cmd option P R to no avail
    I have repaired permissions and this is the only message that pops up, and bluetooth still does not work after reboot.

  • TS3147 After installing Mountain Lion, I tried to scan from my Canon MX870 and received the message: "MP Navigator EX quit unexpectedly. Click Reopen to open the application again. A report will be sent to Apple,"

    After installing Mountain Lion, I tried to scan from my Canon MX870 and received the message: "MP Navigator EX quit unexpectedly. Click Reopen to open the application again. A report will be sent to Apple,"  This problem happened right after I installed Mountain Lion. I then downloaded Canon's upgraded software and drivers for the MX 870 and the problem was resolved. Now one month later, the problem has returned.

    Solved problem with original Canon software.  When I downloaded Canon software upgraded for OS X 10.8, I got all by Navigator Ex. Noticed that on Canon's site, the upgraded version is 3.1; my app was 2.1. Upgraded to 3.1 for Nav. Ex, and it works.
    You should still use Image Capture IMHO.  If it was my gear, that's what I would do.  No need to worry about software upgrades.

    Ive just upgraded my late 2009 macbook, and things are not working properly. First of all, when I started the computer first time after installing Mountain Lion, some message advised me that some files were impossible to install. Once I wrote my password, and for now on, everytime I start the session, another window advise me that "Java SE 6" is missing, due that, the computer can't run some "CS5Service Manager". If I try to install it, the download ends with an error. If finally, you skip the istallation, you arrive to the dock, but the menu bar at the top of the screen doesn't show up.
    In addition, my trackpad doesn't works either. I can move the arrow but i can't click anywhere, probably because the option of clicking by touching is disabeled and I can't performance a regular click.
    I'll be very glad if someone know what the heck is happening with my computer. Anyway, I'm going to the genius bar next Saturday. Thx!

  • Can No Longer Get Camera Photos After Installing Mountain Lion

    After installing Mountain Lion, I am no longer am able to see pictures from my digital camera thru the USB port.  This camera has worked for years with my iMac, but not anymore.  Anybody else having this issue after installing the newest system?
    Dick

    Paul_31:
      I have not tried to import the photos directly into iPhoto.  However, I did remove the SD card from the camera and plug it into a USB card reader, and my iMac would NOT read the photos that way either.  I took the camera and plugged it into my Win. 7 laptop and the pictures showed up nicely, so I know the camera and the card are Ok.  My iMac has been working strangely since I installed Mountain Lion.  I'm getting lockups using iMovie too.

  • After installing Mountain Lion two drives on my network cannot be accessed.  I am using Parallels to utilize QuickBooks ERP.  The programs and data are on the drives that I can no longer access.  Suggestions?

    After installing Mountain Lion on my Mac Book Pro, I can no longer access two shared drives.  Diagostics cannot solve the problem.  I am using Parallels to run Qucikbooks ERP on these shared drives.  How do I get my Mac to see these drives and access them?

    Don't know what to tell you, but I also have an AEBS-Gen5 with a MBP Retina and Mac Mini using WiFi. Both are running Mountain Lion and I don't have any WiFi connection issues. Two iPhones in the household use WiFi with no issues along with a printer and 2 Windows 7 laptops.
    First thing I would try is to shutdown all computers connected to the AEBS. Then power off the AEBS and finally the cable/DSL modem. Then reverse the order and power on the cable modem, wait for all the lights to be solid, power on the AEBS, wait for the light to show solid green; then power up a computer that uses WiFi.
    If the above doesn't work, you might try repairing permissions via Disk Utility. If that doesn't help maybe a PRAM reset would work.
