Another Lion issue - freezes A LOT !!!

hi there
ever since I've updated to Lion the system freezes quite constantly when opening a video on youtube or any other website. is there any graphic issue with lion im not aware of ?
im running os 10.7 on an i5 iMac, 2.5Ghz, 4GB ram, bought a month ago.
cheers !

First, insert the first recovery disk that came with your computer and hold down the D key while booting. Run the Extended Apple Hardware test. Be patient -- this will likely take an hour or more.
If that comes back without errors, I would try an archive and install. (Insert the recovery disk, boot from the DVD by holding down C at startup, and reinstall OS X using "archive and install")

Keynote Crashing - with Lion. Most often when I switch out of Keynote to another program - Keynote freezes - says Application Not Responding. If I save the Keynote before switching, it does not crash - only when it says it is an "edited" file....help

I posted this on another thread. See if this works:
1) Uncheck "Backup previous version" in Keynote's Preferences.
2) Make a duplicate copy of your file that has issues and save it.
3) If you still get spinning wheels from switching between apps after editing or 10 seconds of inactivity, manually save with command+s. It may beach ball here but be patient and wait for it to finish! Try editing and resume doing work now.
Command+s may be a bit slow but I think that might be normal since the files are so big.
Good luck and let me know if this works.

Mountain Lion finder freezes

Hey Apple, you must be aware of this issue so just fix the problem asap coz we are not used to Microsoft kinda freezing & crash issues. This is why we choose Apple. Mountain Lion just freezed unexpectedly and embarrasses too. I was showing Mountain Lion to a Windows friend who is proud on Windows, and it just got freeze. I had nothing to say. So please resolve it asap.

"Its a network issue. Whenever the wifi is connected with a secure network with limited priveledges, it tries to connect and re-connect and it goen into hanging mode."
My Finder is crashing. While working in the Finder (on Mountain Lion, MacBook Pro 13" mid 2012), searching for files using Spotlight, sometimes the Finder crashes. If I have another app open, I am able to access Force-Quit through the Apple menu, but restarting the Finder only makes it crash again, unless I turn off WiFi.

Lightroom 2.6 freezes a lot

I am using LR2.6 with a catalog of about 39000 pictures, on a 64-bit W7 machine with 12g memory. I keep everything in DNG, and export to JPG as needed. The catalog keeps freezing up, and won't let me do anything, sometimes for several minutes at a time. It opens again and is ok for a little while and then it freezes again, sometimes with one or more white panels and a notification that "Lightroom has stopped responding." Sometimes it will go a long time without that happening, other times it is every few seconds.

I think part of the key is to optimize the catalog regularly every couple of days.
Whatever the magic is, somehow the problem seems to have disappeared in
my workflow. I have a catalog of 40,000 DNG pictures, a W7 64-bit, 12g
RAM, quad core and tons of internal and external HD space. I have three
LaCie 2TB external drives, on USB, one of which contains all the DNG
files in my catalog. I backup and optimize the catalog
every few days, which I guess must be the key to something. Other than
that, I cannot think of anything I am doing that is much different from
what I have always done, but somehow things are working smoothly at the
moment. Knock wood. I hope things improve for you as they did for me,
but there are still plenty of mysteries. Maybe Adobe will sneak in some
fixes in their updates (without ever admitting that there were
significant problems in the first place!) and things will keep getting
better.

Subject: Lightroom 2.6 freezes a lot
I am having a very similar issue with very similar computer. 50,000 images in catalog, i7 920 cpu, 12GB ram, Windows 7 x64.
LR is freezing all the time between 5 and 50 minutes of use. driving me nuts!
I thought I had some bad RAM so I ran memtest86+ for 24hrs and it checked out OK.
I thought it was my RAID array so i ran integrity checks and it came out OK.
I went back to thinking it was RAM and removed all but 2 sticks and tried to re-import my images (thinking maybe also corrupt catalog) and it would freeze at around 11000 images. Swapped RAM for another pair and it happened again.
Then I thought it was a memory leak in LR2.6 so I put all my RAM back and re-imported my images and it was successful and has been running for 3 days straight with no freezes.
so all i think I did was change the order of the RAM (and re-seat it)
Anyone figure out what the actual cause and resolution is?

Phone is freezing a lot

Ok my phone has been freezing a lot. If I shut it off and turn it back on, it seems fine until it does it again. More of an annoyance than an actual problem, but what's the deal? I also posted another topic yesterday about it taking forever to get my yahoo mail lately. I don't know if this is yahoo or my phone?
I restored it last night with much trouble (more my piece of #$%@ HP laptop than the phone's problem!) and it still seems to be having the same issues.
Frustrating. Anyone else experiencing this? Any fixes? Short of throwing the phone in the lake? Or driving to Oakbrook to visit with a mac genius?

I'll assume at the start that you have not jailbroken or hacked your phone, have not added applications (other than webapps). If my assumption is wrong then that is where your problem is.
For unhacked phones the usual cause of this is bad data that has gotten into one or more applications (usually mail or Safari). So first step is to clear Safari data. In Settings/Safari clear cookies, history and cache. Then reboot the phone (Hold HOME and SLEEP for about 8 seconds, until the logo appears; ignore the "Slide to turn off" prompt and keep holding).
Try using the phone for a while without using the Mail app. If you don't have the problem try launching Mail. Again see if the problem returns. If it doesn't you've fixed it. If it returns only after using the Mail app you need to do a Restore, and do not reload backup data. This should fix it, but you will lose and photos in the camera roll, SMS messages, and settings.
If it still shows the problem you most likely have a hardware problem; call or take it to an Apple store for further diagnosis.

My IMac freezes a lot does any one knows why

The spinning beach ball can be caused by many different issues. I would suggest carefully reading the Spinning Beach Ball of Death article to troubleshoot where your problem is. Also when posting on a forum please complete your profile, without any information about your computer it's extremely difficult to help you out. Please click Profile Update for instructions.

Sorry Kimberly, it will not. Apple does not provide a downgrade path for the iOS for a variety of reasons.
If you have any particular questions or issues you would like to discuss, please post those.

Look in Activity Monitor (Applications - Utilities - Activity Monitor) and see if you have any runaway processes using a lot of %CPU.
I would also strongly recommend running Apple Hardware Test in Extended Mode. If it reports errors you can Google them or post them here.

TS3423 why macbook pro freezes a lot for me now?

why macbook pro freezes a lot for me now?

I just wanted to follow this up by saying that you were entirely correct in your diagnosis of the situation. My computer did have the faulty part you linked to. I brought my laptop in and specifically told them to run that test, had it fail and then argued with the person at the genius bar and the manager. Eventually they offered to have it sent out and have everything replaced for free of charge. They did so mainly because I had complained about graphical issues almost every other time I had come in with problems and no one ran the test. They should have caught this problem during my warranty, but they didn't, even though I mentioned the problem.
Anyhow, after having the part replaced, I haven't had my computer crash a single time since, or had many of the issues mentioned above. I've never had this experience before. Even brand new, I got occasional crashes. Hopefully this new trend continues.
I do find that web browsing is still incredibly slow. Web browsers just chug along at a slow pace, even though I have great internet speed. Maybe I'll try just deleting my web browsers and reinstalling them...
Anyhow, thank you for your help and knowledge Clinton.

Model Satellite S55D-A5366 freeze a lot since I bought it.

The problem started since the first day I had it. It freezes a lot and some times only reboot by itself I don´t think that is for a software that I have installed becouse it has that problem since the first day. Please what can I do to fix this I read that the problem is with the drivers updates and windows 8.1 but I don´t know what to do?.

If a new computer freez's from day one I would take it back for refund or replacement. You normally have 14 days to return.
If its from 8.1 update - see this Toshiba article on updateing W8 to W8.1 - http://support.toshiba.com/sscontent?contentId=4003162
There are items that need uninstalled before the update then reinstalled after the update. If you cannot correct your software issues you may have to refresh your computer back to windows 8 and follow the instructions to update.

Flash player freeze a lot when playing Youtube videos fullscreen from Linux, but plays videos ok from Windows (CPU: AMD APU).

Hi s, well congrats on getting your brother's computer up and running. On your system, you have all correct Flash Player
files for IE and FF, as well as the SWO and SWF.
Since the Install of Flash Player, have you installed any programs that would have added any ActiveX Controls, or any other add ons or plug-ins?
Have you had an opportunity to see if your brother's computer has the issue you have when watching the same websites?
Are you using any ad-block in FF(Firefox) or any pop up blocker software installed? I can't imagine updating to FP version 10 alone would cause this.
Is this happening only on the BBC website? Does what you watch come thru the BBC website or youtube directly?
We have your brother's computer to use to determine what is going on. If he is able to see the BBC website and what you
are having problems with, then we can rule out the website.
Other browser add ons, anti-virus programs, etc. affect the browser. Even tho, no problem with vs 9. Sometimes updates
can have an affect, even with Windows as we all know:-)
Thanks,
eidnolb

Reinstalling Mountain Lion issue.

Reinstalling Mountain Lion issue. After I erased my HD and reinstalled OS (w/o file transfer from other Mac option) - opened Safari and saw my old bookmarks there already. Does that mean that reinstall didn't go correctly?

Thanks for the reply, I will try that tonight.
I'm working on this thory I found on google....
'Booting a new MacBook Pro (Late 2011) from a retail 10.6.3 disc resulted in a black screen and a repeating 3 beep pattern. This is due to missing Sandy Bridge drivers. Apple will ship a 10.6.6 (iMac) or 10.6.7 (MacBook Pro) installer disc'
My OS was the 10.6.3 that came with my iMac. I phoned Apple, they wanted me to pay £18 for 10.6.6
Hmmmmmm!

Ios 8 on i phone 5 slow response and freeze a lot

I've updated my i phone 5 to ios 8.0.2 but now it's so slow , freeze a lot and most of the apps crash i turned on my location service nothing changes

As razmee209 said, you can use iTunes to install photos on your phone from wherever you have them stored. Where did you copy them to? Are you saying you selected them on you phone and just hit "copy"? That would only copy one at a time to the "clipboard" so that you can paste it somewhere else. As you copy each one, the previous one is deleted from the clipboard. This is not a storage area. Did you back them up on your computer or in iCloud?

[svn:fx-trunk] 9578: Found another embeddedfontcontext issue in the player.

Revision: 9578

Log Message:
Found another embeddedfontcontext issue in the player. ElementFormat.getFontMetrics() must be called in the embeddedFont's moduleFactory context. Added a general "callInContext" API to IFLexModuleFactory. Eventually, TLF will add a new API so they can connect up to this capability and we'll change the code one more time.
