Bridge CS6 - extremely slow preview updates and image deleting

1. Updating previews (100%) is very slow.
Bridge CS6 has problems updating the previews of images that get edited.
While creating preview from scratch is rather swift, updating previews takes about six minutes on a MacBook Pro retina with 16Gb RAM.
After one minute the preview gets updated, but then the busy signal in the low left corner just keeps turning and turning for five more minutes.
Why is this happening? Is Bridge still busy with those previews? Why? The preview has already been updated, why those extra five minutes of business?
2. Image deleting is painfully slow.
You type Command + Delete, and nothing is happening for five, six seconds.
Only then the images get deleted.
Has anybody else noticed these two hold-ups?
Edit:
I just went back after writing and editing this post, and Bridge is still busy with the preview update. This is now 15 minutes after the image had been edited. The busy signal in the lower left corner just never turns off again.
It feels like Bridge has also problems working in the background. As soon as you open e.g. a browser to bridge the waiting for bridge, Bridge seems to keep the busy signal rotating, but not actually doing anything until you close the browser again. Which is why I just had a 15 minute wait for an image preview to finally update. The time spent in the browser did not "count".

Hi Noel,
Yes, I did the upgrade, and I did not experience any problems.
Only, the issues above were not fixed in the update.
Are you not experiencing the same issues? (I'm on a Mac).
C. Pfaffenbichler, I was actually looking for a dedicated Bridge forum, but I couldn't see a Bridge icon.

Bridge CS6 very slow

Since a few days my bridge is extremely slow and I can not work anymore. Response time when I click on a picture about 5 seconds, clicking on a menu about 10 seconds, selecting 10 images takes 20 seconds, opening a thumb in full scrreen view takes 15 second. My system has plenty of power. Need urgent help. Thanx!

The most obvious question is: what changed a few days ago?
besides this also try to purge the cache of one problem folder (tools / cache / purge cache for folder ) to see if it is a cache problem.
And restart Bridge holding down control key to reset the preferences to factory default also might help often to solve suddenly appearing problems.

Bridge doesn´t show preview of tif-images

Hi,
I uses Bridge CS6 on a Mac with MacOS 10.9.2. Suddenly bridge doesn´t show previews of Tif-images. It´s also impossible to fill in any metadata. The program also says that the image isn´t tagged with any color profile. I don´t have these problems with jpegs, only with Tif-images. I even get previews on the RAW-images. Does anyone know what the problem can be?

I guess I have to try to reinstall the program.......
I'm 99,99 % sure that won't help solving your problem because to possible being effective you also should use the Adobe Clean tool to get rid of a lot of the hidden files that just stay put during a normal reinstall. But if you want to do something easier instead of reinstall, quit Bridge and go to the user library (by default hidden per OSX 7, use Finder, menu Go with option to reveal this library)
In the preferences folder is plist file for Bridge (com.adobe.bridge5.plist), drag this file to the trash. Then in same library go to the folder Caches / Adobe/ Bridge CS5 and inhere delete both plug in and folder called Cache. (this means recaching the previews and thumbs).
Then restart Bridge holding down option key and again choose 'reset prefs'. All previous deleted items will be replaced with new, fresh and empty ones and you have an almost like factory settings Bridge without the need of reinstall.
But I really suspect it comes down to the Tiff files so maybe also a reset of preferences in PS might be worth a try.

Extremely SLOW after update, sound also a problem

Hiya!
I just did a whole bunch of updates, which ones I can't really remember... but all of a sudden my computer is EXTREMELY slow at opening and closing applications (Safari interestingly seems to work alright). Also, it's extremely slow when I type, and ends up several words behind me.
Worst of all, my sound has gone completely haywire. I can't play sound in itunes or anywhere else, it sounds a bit like a youtube video that didn't load properly (you can hear about every 10th word or beat and then it cuts out again.) Does anyone have any idea what is wrong here?
One of my friends suggested the logicboard, but I honestly have no idea what that is. I ran a hardware test thing and nothing came up, so all seems to be good there. Could I have a virus?

thanks for the help.... even thought it didn't work...
basically I think i either have some virus or this is the result of that stupid update I did... I know i did that keyboard one an itunes one a quicktime one and there might've been another.

Develop EXTREMELY slow with high ISO images

I imported a set of images at 200 iso and developed them (exposure, fill light, etc) with no problems.
Then I imported a set of images at 800 iso and when I attempt to make adjustments in the Develop module it's almost impossible. I'd hover over the slider and then get the spinning beach ball, move it slight and again the beach ball and move it again and beach ball. No preview update and the computer's fans go on and it's maxed out on processing power.
I have rebooted, and deleted those images from the catalog and rebuilt the catalog, fixed permissions, etc. I went back to some older images that were 100 iso and 800 iso and I get the same results.

Try these steps.
Open task manager
Click on processes tab. You can see all the apps and processes that are consuming memory.
Click on top of column showing the memory. This will arrange them in ascending or descending order of how much memory is consumed.
Find the ones which is consuming maximum memory
Uninstall if you don’t need the program or app. Re-configure or re-install the software or app if it is an important one.
Hope it helps.

Pdf's are extremely slow to open and attach in outlook 2007

For the past two weeks, Pdf's are extremely slow to open and attach in outlook 2007. currently have Adobe Acrobat X Standard and Adobe Reader X running on windows 7, using microsoft office 2007. is anyone else having this issue?

In an effort to try and solve this I have converted the four reports to native POJO datasources. I thought that maybe the report was looking for the ODBC data source upon which the reports were designed. The ODBC approach was used to help speed up design and development. Now that the DB schema is up and running I can use the POJO and eclipse for preview.
No change in startup and exporting on the QA system.

EXTREMELY SLOW XQUERY PERFORMANCE AND SLOW DOCUMENT INSERTS

EXTREMELY SLOW XQUERY PERFORMANCE AND SLOW DOCUMENT INSERTS.
Resolution History

### Complete Problem Description ###
A test file is being used to do inserts into a schemaless XML DB. The file is inserted and then links are made to 4
different collection folders under /public. The inserts are pretty slow (about
15 per second and the file is small)but the xquery doesn't even complete when
there are 500 documents to query against.
The same xquery has been tested on a competitors system and it has lightening fast performance there. I know it
should likewise be fast on Oracle, but I haven't been able to figure out what
is going on except that I suspect somehow a cartesian product is the result of
the query on Oracle.
### SQLXML, XQUERY, PL/SQL syntax used ###
Here is the key plsql code that calls the DBMS_XDB procedures:
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE "XDB"."RESOURCEARRAY" AS VARRAY(500) OF VARCHAR2(256);
PROCEDURE AddOrReplaceResource(
resourceUri VARCHAR2,
resourceContents SYS.XMLTYPE,
public_collections in ResourceArray
) AS
b BOOLEAN;
privateResourceUri path_view.path%TYPE;
resource_exists EXCEPTION;
pragma exception_init(resource_exists,-31003);
BEGIN
/* Store the document in private folder */
privateResourceUri := GetPrivateResourceUri(resourceUri);
BEGIN
b := dbms_xdb.createResource(privateResourceUri, resourceContents);
EXCEPTION
WHEN resource_exists THEN
DELETE FROM resource_view WHERE equals_path(res, privateResourceUri)=1;
b := dbms_xdb.createResource(privateResourceUri, resourceContents);
END;
/* add a link in /public/<collection-name> for each collection passed in */
FOR i IN 1 .. public_collections.count LOOP
BEGIN
dbms_xdb.link(privateResourceUri,public_collections(i),resourceUri);
EXCEPTION
WHEN resource_exists THEN
dbms_xdb.deleteResource(concat(concat(public_collections(i),'/'),resourceUri));
dbms_xdb.link(privateResourceUri,public_collections(i),resourceUri);
END;
END LOOP;
COMMIT;
END;
FUNCTION GetPrivateResourceUri(
resourceUri VARCHAR2
) RETURN VARCHAR2 AS
BEGIN
return concat('/ems/docs/',REGEXP_SUBSTR(resourceUri,'[a-zA-z0-9.-]*$'));
END;
### Info for XML Querying ###
Here is the XQuery and a sample of the output follows:
declare namespace c2ns="urn:xmlns:NCC-C2IEDM";
for $cotEvent in collection("/public")/event
return
<cotEntity>
{$cotEvent}
{for $d in collection("/public")/c2ns:OpContextMembership[c2ns:Entity/c2ns:EntityIdentifier
/c2ns:EntityId=xs:string($cotEvent/@uid)]
return
$d
</cotEntity>
Sample output:

Zooming animation is extremely slow in IE7 and IE8

Hi,
version: OracleAS MapViewer Version: Ver1033p5_B080908
zooming effect is extremely slow in IE7 and IE8 (FF, Safari, Chrome do it fast!)
thanks,
Branislav

I believe you can blame IE's incredibly slow JavaScript engine for this. That's my experience. There's not much the Mapviewer developers can do about that really.
I had hoped, that IE8 had improved on that, but there hasn't really been any visible differences.

I had an issue running Bridge CS6 on my laptop yesterday and after failing to troubleshoot I un-installed it from my system but have yet to find any way to download/reinstall it. I have web design premium and tried uninstalling/reinstalling photoshop and illutsrator as I'd seen bridge was coupled with those but had no luck. Is it possible to download bridge as a stand alone with a web design premium license for cs6

restart your design premium installation, select custom install and you should see options to pick which programs you want to install.
tick bridge and install

My hp support assistance wont run. It keeps stopping during updates and when deleting the temporary internet files. So it never finishes the process.. help

The failure to remove the Temporary Files could just be due to having your internet connection active during the removal process. For most folks, the amount of data in this directory is minimal. If you want / need to remove the files, you could close your browser(s), make sure your Internet music and TV connections are closed, and then try removing the files manually:
Path to Folder:
C:\Users\--YourAccountNameHere--\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files
Warning:
Do NOT remove the "Temporary Internet Folder" itself. Go "inside" the folder before removing anything.

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

PS CS6 Extremely slow and sluggish. Brush tool delay.

Hello everyone.
I own a copy of Photoshop CS6.
Switching from Photoshop CS to CS6, I have found this version to be extremely slow and I can not find a reason why it is like this. It is impossible for me to work on it.
Problem: Slow performance, when using the brush tool there is a long delay - lag. The brush takes more than 8 seconds to catch up with my strokes.
Software:
Adobe Photoshop CS6 x64
OS:
Windows 7 x64 SP1
CPU:
AMD Phenom II X4 965 BE
GPU:
Radeon 6790 OC @ 920Mhz
RAM:
A-Data DDR3 1333Mhz CAS9 4GB (x2)
SSD:
A-Data 510 128GB SATA3
HDD:
Samsung SATA 1TB
Tried:
- Memory usage allowed upgraded to 6GB, nothing changed.
- Default selected "Scratch Disk" is the main SSD which has over 58GB of free space, I've tried selecting the secondary HDD as well but nothing changes.
- Disabled the "Use Graphic Processor" square. nothing changed.
- Disabled the "Use open CL" square in advanced Graphic Processor Settings. Nothing changed.
- Changed power management settings in windows to "High Performance". nothing changed.
- Disabling tablet pc service doesn't help.
Notes:
- Graphic drivers are the latest release on AMD website
- Windows is completely updated
- SSD Firmware is the latest available.
- The issue happens both with mouse and tablet.
- 1px brush and 5000px brush lag just alike in zoomed and not zoomed canvas.
- This happens on both x64 and x86 versions of the software.
Any help is aprecihated.
Thank you in advance.

AMD replied to my email just today and said that my graphic card should be compatible and should perform great with the current drivers.
Wow, they went out on a limb and said that? AMD clearly is denying any problems just as any corporate entity appears to do nowadays. Didn't someone once say "shoot all the laywers"?
It's pretty clear the Catalyst 12.4 release is a bust with Photoshop. Lots of people have seen that. And I just checked - AMD hasn't released Catalyst 12.5 yet.
http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/windows/Pages/radeonaiw_vista64.aspx
But I agree that your card is MORE than powerful enough. Mine is slower than yours and my Photoshop experience is quick and interactive. There is a SPECIFIC PROBLEM that's manifesting here.
But just to be absolutely, completely, undeniably sure we're not talking about a performance issue with very large files, please do the following:
1. Create a new, blank document as follows:
2. Choose the Brush Tool then reset it by right-clicking in the little brush icon at the upper-left and choosing Reset Tool:
3. Make the brush 1000 pixels in size, fully soft.
4. Set the foreground color to something other than white and brush quickly from the upper-left corner of the image to the lower-right. Roughly how many seconds does it take for the actual on-canvas stroke to get all the way to the bottom (i.e., how far behind does it get)?
Is it:
Nearly instantaneous?
One second behind?
Many seconds behind?
On my system with this big brush and huge image, it gets about 1 second behind.

Illustrator CS6 EXTREMELY slow since Mavericks update

After upgrading to Mavericks, my whole CS6 suite is extremely slow. It's taking several minutes just to open a file, and equally as long to save. Has anyone else had similar issues? I've looked on the forums and see where other users have issues with it crashing, but I do not have that problem.

I too am having the same problem with all my CC including Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator, and Acrobat Pro after installing Mavericks. I cannot find Adobe Drive anywhere on my system. I've done a manual search in all the usual places and a spotlight search with no luck. I'm desperate to solve this extremely slow opening file problem. It's causing me major problems keeping up with my work. Barely have time to post here.
