Cineware extremely slow on Macbook Pro 2014

Hello, I recently bought a new Macbook Pro, but when I import a C4D file using Cineware it goes extremely slow. Every time I click (while the 3d file is on the stage) it takes at least 10 seconds before something happens, even when I put a simple cube.
The Cinema 4D software itself is working as it should be and is not slow.
There's no way to work properly this way, does anyone know what the problem might be and how I could solve it?
I didn't have this issue on my 2011 Macbook Pro.
My specs:
MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014)
Processor: 2,2GHz Intel Core i7
Memory: 16GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics: Intel Iris Pro 1536MB
After Effects 13.2.0.49
Mac OS 10.10 Yosemite
Thanks in advance.

2.2GHz Intel Core i7 processor
16gb RAM (upgraded from 8gb)
Intel HD Graphics - AMD Radeon HD 6750M 512 MB
It wasn't exactly going smooth on the 2011 one, but it wasn't nearly as bad as the one I have now.
I don't know if this is relevant, but video games run much better on the new one.
Also I cant select GPU under ray-tracing in the AE preferences > Previews > GPU Information. It says 'GPU not available - incompatible device or CUDA driver'. I've installed the CUDA driver, but I suppose it's worthless since I don't have an NVidia graphics card?
I don't know too much about hardware, but I hope it helps

  • Mavericks extremely slow on MacBook Pro Mid-2010

    Hi all,
    Since i installed Mavericks its been impossible to work on my Mac. I've already done a clean install and no signs of improve.
    I use Eclipse IDE to work, and its extremly slow now. Even can have some video playing on Youtube without some cuts when working.
    What should i do? Downgrade to ML? Sell this laptop? Buy new RAM?
    I've attached below the EtreCheck.... i don't know if theres something on my OS that may be causing this.
    PS: ....and the OS already indexed all the files.
    Big thanks for any help given.

    First, back up all data immediately unless you already have a current backup. If you can't back up, stop here. Do not take any of the steps below.
    Step 1
    This diagnostic procedure will query the log for messages that may indicate a system issue. It changes nothing, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CReq 'GPU |hfs: Ru|I/O e|find tok|n Cause: -|NVDA\(|pagin|timed? ?o' | tail | awk '/:/{$4=""; print}' | open -ef
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key.
    The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
    A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. Normally the command will produce no output, and the window will be empty. If the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window) has anything in it, stop here and post it — the text, please, not a screenshot. The title of the TextEdit window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that.
    Step 2
    There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
    Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    Run Software Update. If there's a firmware update, install it.
    If you're booting from an aftermarket SSD, see whether there's a firmware update for it.
    If you have a portable computer, check the cycle count of the battery. It may be due for replacement.
    If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
    If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane. See whether there's any change.
    Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
    Boot into Recovery mode, launch Disk Utility, and run Repair Disk.
    If you have a MacBook Pro with dual graphics, disable automatic graphics switching in the Energy Saverpreference pane for better performance at the cost of shorter battery life.
    Step 3
    When you notice the problem, launch the Activity Monitor 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 Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
    Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
    Select All Processes from the View menu or the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
    Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for User, System, and Idle at the bottom of the window.
    Select the Memory tab. What value is shown in the bottom part of the window for Swap used?
    Next, select the Disk tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in andWrites out.)
    Step 4
    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. 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.
    Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combinationcommand-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

  • Premiere Pro CS5 project sudenly extremely slow on Macbook Pro

    Hello,
    I've been using Adobe CS5 for a little over two years. I have a 2012 Macbook Pro.
    I am working on a freelance project for a big client. In the last 48 hours or so the processing speed of the project has been getting slower and slower. The rest of my computer's processing is fine, it is only when I try to do anything in Premiere in this one specific project. It is now to the point where I can't really do anything in the project.... If I try to make an edit (for example, trimming a clip, adding a cross dissolve, changing the scale of a clip, etc.), what should take less than 1 second to process can take anywhere from 30 seconds to a few minutes. This is obviously highly abnormal.
    I can't figure out why it is doing this. I have some pretty big files in the project, but I doubt it making it slow down this much.
    Help anyone??

  • USB 3.0 external drive extremely slow on Macbook Air 2014

    Dear Apple Support Team & Folks in Apple Community,
    Seriously, I have a problem with my new Macbook Air 2014 which has equipped with USB 3.0 port. I read through the forum and hardly find a solution for this.
    Recently, I plugged in my USB 3.0 external drive and expect that it would reach the same file transfer speed as that on my PC. Instead of 625 MB/s (5 Gbit/s), it was hardly reaching 60 MB/s (480 Mbit/s) to my surprise! Sounds like Macbook Air doesn't recognize USB 3.0 device properly. I have tried Western Digital and Seagate devices but failed to get reasonable transfer speed on my Macbook Air.
    I tried it again with my USB 2.0 external drive on Macbook Air and only got the transfer speed around 15 - 20 MB/s which is disappointing.
    Any patches or Firmware updates would be appreciate!
    I have OS X 10.9.3 already with EFI and SMC update patched by App Store.

    I would be interested to know which consumer grade non-raid external harddisk that could reach 6xx mb/sec.
    The speed you mentioned should be normal, since most of these are 5400rpm drives (asumming it is 2.5 inch).

  • Mountain Lion extremly slow on Macbook Pro

    Upgraded from Snow Leopard to OS X Mountain Lion yesterday and Having god awful performance issues.  the wheel of death is always running.
    After Upgrading everything runs so slow. every app is very slow. I have deleted apps I dont need, Ran a disk Utility verify and repair, turned off all notifications.
    reset memory by holding down apple, function p and r keys. 
    what else can i do. 

    Look at Thomas A Reed's Understanding Upgrade Nightmares article http://www.reedcorner.net/understanding-upgrade-nightmares/ and make sure all apps are compatible with Mountain Lion by using www.roaringapps.com. Using both of these you should be able to diagnose your individual problem and get i fixed.

  • Macbook Pro 2014 (16gb ram) running very slow in excel.  Can anyone help?

    My Macbook Pro 2014 is running extremely slow in Mac Excel 2011.  I just recently made the purchase (Last week) to upgrade from my Macbook Pro 2013.  The upgrade was for work as I handle large spreadsheets in my new role.  It would take some time to load before, and I was told it was because I only had 4GB of RAM.  Now, I have 16 GB of RAM and it runs slower than before.  Can anyone assist me with a solution?

  • How to connect new Macbook pro 2014 to iMac 2010 for a secondary display

    I have a new Macbook Pro 2014 and an old iMac 2010. How can I connect them to have an additional secondary display? I thought I would need a thunderbolt cable with a Thunderbolt to Mini DisplayPort adapter but I can't find that. There's lots of options and I don't understand what would be best.
    Macbook Pro 2014
    iMac 2010
    Any help would be much appreciated!

    Hi Nathaniel,
    Thunderbolt is another way of calling it a Mini Displayport, thunderbolt is just faster and has more usage with other products (i.e. hdds, displays etc.) You can hook up a thunderbolt to a mini-display port because both are the same size and serve the same function. Just don't connect anything to the display port on the iMac other than a computer.
    Kind Regards,

  • My Macbook Pro 2014 ran out of battery while mid-slideshow. Now the slideshow won't skip through photos and I can't figure out why? Macbook Pro 2014 13-inch Intel i5 8GB RAM 128GB flash, iPhoto library is on external HDD

    Macbook Pro 2014
    13-inch
    Intel i5
    8GB RAM
    128GB flash SSD,
    Integrated Graphics
    iPhoto library is on external HDD
    I was in a slideshow, with around 1,911 photos in it. About halfway through, my Macbook ran out of battery. Now when I restarted and charged the Macbook and reopened iPhoto, the slideshow won't advance through photos, and I can't figure out any reason why it would do this.
    I thought it may be corrupted, so I deleted and reinstalled iPhoto library, iPhoto itself, and disconnected and reconnected my external HDD.
    This didn't work, the photos still won't advance.
    I don't know any reason why this would be happening, and there is ample space on my internal drive.
    I'm happy to provide more information if needed!
    Many Thanks,
    James

    Make a few tests, James, to narrow down the problem and find out, if the slideshow is corrupted, your iPhoto Library, or settings in your account.
    To test, if only your slideshow has a problem, create a new slideshow, just for testing. Just use "File > New Slideshow" and add a few photos. Does this slideshow play correctly?
    If the test slideshow does not play either, create a new iPhoto Library. Use the File menu in iPhoto: File > Switch to library > Create New. Import a few photos and create a slideshow.  Does it play?
    If even a new library does not solve the problem, test in a different user account (see this document:  Isolating an issue by using another user account - Apple Support):   
    This process involves creating a new user account, logging in to it, and testing for the issue.
    Create a new standard or admin user account in Users & Groups preferences.
    Use these instructions for OS X Mavericks.
    See these instructions for OS X Mountain Lion.
    See this video, or these instructions for OS X Lion.
    Optional: If you have any specific files you wish to test with, copy (don't move) those items to the /Users/Shared folder in the Finder.
    Log out of your current user account by choosing Log Out from the Apple () menu.
    Log in with the new account you created.
    Attempt to reproduce the issue you were seeing in your regular user account.
    After you have completed testing, log out of the test account by choosing Log Out from the Apple () menu.
    Log in as your regular account.
    After you have completed all testing with the test user account, you may want to delete it. You can delete an account in the Users & Groups pane of System Preferences.
    Note: Prior to deleting a test account, make sure you are completely done with it. If you have files in the Guest User you wish to keep, you should copy them to the /Users/Shared folder .
    If you should find, that slideshows only play in a new user account, post back.

  • I tried to encrypt using file vault but it froze slowing my macbook pro, how can i get things moving or stop the encryption

    i tried to encrypt using file vault but it froze slowing my macbook pro, how can i get things moving or stop the encryption

    Back up all data before proceeding. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select Disk Utility.
    In the Disk Utility window, select the icon of the startup volume from the list on the left. It will be nested below another disk icon, usually with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar. When prompted, enter the login password of a user authorized to unlock the volume, or the alternate decryption key that was generated when you activated FileVault.
    Then, from the menu bar, select
              File ▹ Turn Off Encryption
    Enter the password again.
    You can then restart as usual, if the system is working. Decryption will be completed in the background. It may take several hours, and during that time performance will be reduced.
    If you can't turn off encryption in Disk Utility because the menu item is grayed out, you'll have to erase the volume and then restore the data from a backup. Select the Erase tab, and then select
              Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    from the Format menu.
    You can then quit to be returned to the main Recovery screen. Follow these instructions if you back up with Time Machine. If you use other backup software, follow its developer's instructions.
    Don't erase the volume unless you have at least two complete, independent backups. One is not enough to be safe.

  • Compressor is slow on Macbook Pro

    Is anyone else noticing that compressor runs very slow on the macbook pros. We are using it to compress 22 minute standard def video files to quicktime 7>300k. The compressions run about twice as fast on a G5 comparred to a mac book pro.
    I was reading this article and the testers seemed to have the same findings.

    Has anyone found out why compressor is so slow on macbook pros and/or how to fix it?
    Thanks!

    Laptops have fundamentally worse performance than desktops with smiilar specs. This is true on customs, Macs, Dells, HP, alienware, etc. I try not to use my laptop to do anythign demanding because I know I'll be waiting a while. As far as a technical reason, it may be best to keep trying with Apple support. Although I'm sure its similar, I only knos the technical reasons for PCs.

  • Mac OSX Lion on a Retina MacBook Pro (2014)

    Hi,
    I need to install Mac OSX Lion on a Retina MacBook Pro (2014) on a second partition. I have the installer for Lion and everything, but I'm not sure if it will work on such a new mac. Any experiences?
    Thanks
    Marco.

    It won't work. You can't install an older version than the Mac shipped with.

  • Macbook pro 2014 vs 2015? HELP!

    so i wanted to make a purchase for a Macbook Pro, my friend said that i should get the macbook pro 2014 retina display, instead of the newest one and avoid all the fees reasons being i want to play games (not huge graphic games) like second life and The sims 4 on my device, I'm huge on graphics and i hate choppy games, my friend says that the Haswell Processor 2014 macbook pro is enough for my needs rather then getting the macbook updated version, soon the prices will drop for the 2014 edition and i can get the Macbook i want for a affordable price.... any tech savvy people got any advice... oh and i don't want the macbook air lol

    Apple doesn't sell the 2014 MacBook Pro anymore (maybe they do on amazon or ebay or something). I would go for the newest one if I was you.

  • 1TB flash storage on MacBook pro 2014

    Hello everyone,
    I'm interested in the latest MacBook pro 2014, and planning to get one.
    According to the spec on the website, it says MacBook pro 15" could be configured to 1TB flash storage.
    Does anybody know what is the brand of the flash storage? Samsung or SanDisk? Or both?
    Is its component size same as M.2 2280 or 2260 PCIe SSD?
    Can we replace it by our own? I mean, can we buy a M.2 2280 or 2260 PCIe SSD to replace it if it fit?

    You then may be risking voiding the warranty.
