Can't launch Phtoshop CS3 and Aperture at the same time on new iMac

Need some assistance here. I'm extremely new to the Mac world, but my wife is having trouble editing photoshoots. She does a good deal of basic editing in Aperture, but also has some actions that she uses in CS3. She always has to close out almost all of her running application before she can launch photoshop. Message window "Adobe Photoshop CS3 cannot be launched". Is this a simple RAM upgrade issue?

Do an +About This Mac+ from the Apple menu, and post back with the amount of RAM.
If it has 1GB of RAM with Leopard, Mac OS X will rely more on using its virtual memory scheme. There's nothing wrong with that, but virtual memory will use hidden +swap files+ which are written to the hard drive. If the Mac has not been restarted for a while, those swap files can get fragmented over time and the Mac will run less efficiently.
Restarting resets the swap files (starts with new ones).
My guess is it is related to use of virtual memory and those swap files; something may have become out of sync. Or it could have been some underlying OS service (needed by CS3) that was not running properly. In any event, if it does not happen too often, I would just restart when it does happen.

  • Can we use Badi BBP_SOURCING_BADI and BBP_DETERMINE_LOGSYS at the same time

    Hi everyone,
    We need you help. We are working in SRM 7 and ECC 6 EhP 4. We have a doubt. Can we use badis BBP_SOURCING_BADI and BBP_DETERMINE_LOGSYS at the same time in a classic scenario?
    We want to create the contract in ECC, and then we want to return the SC in SoCo in order to create the PO with the SC and the contract.
    We activate both, but the SC is not returned in SoCo.
    Thanks,
    Ivá

    Hi Ivan
    You can use both badi to change srm standard behavior.
    but one shopping cart item and it can have only one follow on document either Contract or Purchase order.
    i presumed that you want to use same sc for two purposes to create both SC and PO but it is not possible.
    for example
    shopping cart item has follow on document created  as a contract But you need to create a another shopping cart to create a Purchase order  w.r.t that contract .
    Once follow on documents are created sourcing flag will be removed .- rule
    BBP_SOURCING_BADI - you can write your custom logic and make way to cockpit .
    BBP_DETERMINE_LOGSYS - Determine your logical system.

  • Can I use both iPhoto and Aperture on the same library?

    I like some of the features of iPhoto (like faces and places) but prefer to work in Aperture for its rich tool content. Is there any way I can use both iPhoto and Aperture on the same library? Or, import images from Aperture into iPhoto?
    Thanks much!
    John

    I think you may have answered a question I have with the above, but to be sure here is what I would like to do. I currently have iPhoto09 with about 50,000 pictures in it, which seems too much for it to manage. I would like to use Aperture, which I understand is better for managing a large number of photos, but still have iPhoto available to make slide shows, etc. for our AppleTV. Would the process you described above work for that?
    Thank you

  • Can we use both INSERT and UPDATE at the same time in JDBC Receiver

    Hi All,
    I would like to know is it possible to use both INSERT and UPDATE at the same time in one interface because I have a requirement in which I have to perform both the task.
    user send the file which contains both new and old record and I need to save those in MS SQL database.
    If the record exist then use UPDATE otherwise use INSERT.
    I looked on sdn but didn't find any blog which perform both the things at the same time.
    Interface Requirement
    FILE -
    > PI -
    > JDBC(INSERT & UPDATE)
    I am thinking to use JDBC Lookup but not sure if it good to use for bulk record.
    Can somebody please suggest me something or send me the link of any blog or anything to solve this problem.
    Thanks,

    Hi ,
              If I have understood properly the scenario properly,you are not performing insert and update together. As you posted
    "If the record exist then use UPDATE otherwise use INSERT."
    Thus you are performing either an insert or an update which depends on outcome of a search if the records already exist in database or not. Obviously to search the tables you need " select * from ...  where ...." query. If your query returns some results you proceed with update since this means there are some old records already in database. If your query returns no rows  you proceed with "insert into tablename....." since there are no old records present in database.
      Now perhaps the best method to do the searching, taking a decision to insert or update, and finally insert or update operation is to be done by a stored procedure in MS SQL database.  A stored procedure is a subroutine available to applications accessing a relational database system. Here the application is PI server.   If you need further help on how to write and call stored procedure in MS SQL you can look into these links
    http://www.daniweb.com/web-development/databases/ms-sql/threads/146829
    http://www.sqlteam.com/article/stored-procedures-parameters-inserts-and-updates
    [ This part you can ignore, Since its not sure that you will face this situation
        Still you might face some problems while your scenario runs. Lets consider this scenario, after the stored procedure searches the database it found no rows. Thus you proceed with an insert operation. If your database table is being accessed by multiple applications (or users) other than yours then it is very well possible that after the search operation completed with a null result, an insert/update operation has been performed by some other application with the same primary key. Now when you are trying to insert another row with same primary key you get an error message like "duplicate entry not possible for same primary key value". Thus you need to be careful in this respect. MS SQL has a feature called "exclusive locks ". Look into these links for more details on the subject

    http://www.mollerus.net/tom/blog/2008/03/using_mssqls_nolock_for_faster_queries.html
        There must be other methods to avoid this problem. But the point is you need to be sure that all access to database for insert/update operations are isolated.

  • Why can't I run Safari and Skype at the same time without making my computer freeze up?

    I can't believe I can't run Safari and Skype at the same time without my computer freezing up, it's a MacBook Pro with Mac OS 10.6.8 and it has an Intel Core 2 Duo CPU with 2.2 Ghz and 2 Gb of RAM. Is this a hardware problem or a software problem?

    I haven't gone to the trouble of actually testing to see which uses more CPU power, but Firefox has been faster than Safari on every Mac I've ever owned.
    To see CPU usage by process, open the terminal (in Utilities) and enter 'top' at the command line. You might have to expand the window as processes don't appear in any logical order.
    It could also be hardware-related: I have late 2009 mini with similar specs and it pinwheels easily.

    Yes. But you did not say whether the camera works alone or not at all. In the latter case it could be the camera isn't compatible.

  • IPhone - how to sync with iPhoto and Aperture at the same time ???

    I'm having a really hard time with syncing my photos - I'm using iPhoto and Aperture on my Mac. When I launch iTunes and start managing my iPhone, it seems like I should be able to sync photos from a variety of sources all at once (iPhoto, Aperture, other folders).
    However, whichever option I select in the photos drop-down becomes the only libraries that are available to sync. What I mean is that if I select some of the Albums in my iPhoto list and sync those, when I later drill down to Aperture and select albums from there and perform a sync - then the previously synced/loaded albums and photos from iPhoto are automatically removed from the iPhone.
    Why can't I sync between multiple photo albums / sources at the same time? This is incredibly annoying.

    Here's how I solved this problem:
    In Aperture, select File -> Import -> iPhoto Library
    Then under the "Store Files" dropdown, be sure "In their Original Location" is select. This will allow Aperture to see your iPhoto library, but it will be managed by reference rather than phyisically imported.
    Now, in iTunes, select Aperture as the application from which you want to synch photos, and select the option to synch specific albums.
    You should be able to see the names of albums in iPhoto as well as those created in Aperture.

  • Run CS3 and 8 at the same time on mac?

    I want to download a trial version of the CS3 and run it, at
    the same time, as my existing Dreamweaver 8 on my G5 Mac running
    10.4.10. (It is NOT an Intel Mac.) There is a 30 day trial and this
    way, in the downtime between projects, I can test out and use the
    CS3 version and make sure it is stable on my system, learn to use
    it a bit, set it up the way I would want it, but always be able to
    cut back to 8 in a pinch if I have mission critical work that must
    get done. I know 8 like the back of my hand and know nothing about
    CS3 version, so I like the safety net of being able to run them
    both.
    Any issues with this? Is it possible? Will it break anything
    - like with my stable and running CS2 apps and Acrobat 7?

    You can have several versions of Dw on your system ( I have

    CS3 is rather stricter about code - so depending on how well
    your code
    validates - it may complain if there are any problems.
    Bear in mind that CS4 may be released sometime in the next
    few months
    - there is no public info when that will be - so maybe better
    to wait
    for that.

  • Can my ipad use wifi and bluetooth at the same time?

    Hi
    I can stream radio via wifi radio apps and play through earphones. I can connect to my bluetooth speaker and play music stored on my ipad ok.
    When I connect up to my bluetooth speaker and try to stream the radio app it plays for a couple of seconds then stops for 20 seconds then plays for 2 seconds and carries on start, stop, start (I guess it's buffering or something?).
    Is it not possible to listen to a radio app and stream it to a bluetooth speaker at the same time?
    Any suggestions welcome

    Thanks for confirming it should work man.
    A quick check of the talktalk forum and it's my talktalk D-link 2780 router. It's a known problem.
    It all works ok on next doors router so Off to PC World for a decent router.
    Thanks again.

  • Can't watch a programme and record at the same time.

    I rang Sky who say it's nothing to do with them. Gave me Lovedigital number. Rang them they said contact my landlord. Rang Bristol City Council, they say it's nothing to do with them.

    What I meant is the number of cables going into your Sky box. If there is only one cable going to your Sky box, that answers the question of why you can't watch one thing and record another at the same time - your Sky + box would require two inputs to do that. From what you've said it sounds like a communal dish set up. If that is right then whoever looks after that are the people you need to contact to see about the possibility of getting a double feed into your home. 

  • Why can't i use wifi and bluetooth at the same time?

    I recently bought a Philips docking speaker that has bluetooth connectivity for streaming music wirelessly from my Ipod Touch. The bluetooth/speaker works great, but, my Touch won't allow me to be online AND use the bluetooth at the same time. This is really annoying when you want to listen to music and check your emails. Am I doing something wrong?? Any  help would be gratefully received.

    I can use by BT headphones while my iPod is connected to the internet via wifi with no problems. I am uncertain how the Philips' system works.  Does it have its own BT transmitter/receiver or doe it use the iPods to stream to its speaker?

  • Can not connect to printer and internet at the same time

    I use my airport to connect to the internet via the ethernet port. Internet was working fine until I connected my printer to airport via its USB port. Now the printer works fine but I can't connect to the internet using the same connection.
    I can still connect to the same server using its wireless service, but I have to keep hitting the drop down list in the menu bar to select that connection. Can't I just keep connected to the same connection without having to switch back and forth? I thought these mac products were supposed to be all user friendly... I don't have time for this.

    The only way to print and use the internet (or university network) at the same time is to do one of the following:
    (1) Connect the printer via USB to your computer.
    (2) Connect the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) via Ethernet to the university's network and then configure the AEBS to act as a bridge (not sharing a single IP address).
    The AEBS can NOT wirelessly join the network.

  • Can AE support wireless 'g' and 'n' at the same time?

    Do I need a router or can I just plug an ethernet cable from the modem into an airport express and be ready to go (essentially making the Airport Express my router)?
    Also, I'll have two laptop PC's connected to it. One has a 802.11g card, the other has an 802.11n card.
    Can both 'g' and 'n' be used at the same time or will I be limited by the slowest card (in this case, the 'g')?

    Welcome to the discussion area!
    +Do I need a router or can I just plug an ethernet cable from the modem into an airport express and be ready to go (essentially making the Airport Express my router)?+
    The AirPort Express is a wireless router that will support up to 10 wireless connections simultaneously when connected to a modem.
    +Can both 'g' and 'n' be used at the same time or will I be limited by the slowest card (in this case, the 'g')?+
    The default wireless mode of the AirPort Express will support "b", "g" and "n" clients, so "n" devices will connect at faster "n" speeds while "g" devices connect at that speed. The "g" device may tend to slow down the "n" device a bit depending on how much data is being transferred from the AirPort Express to the 'g" device at any given time. When the "g" device is not active on the network, "n" devices will communicate at full "n" level speeds.
