CompressorTranscoder only using 200% and "not responding"

I'm new to Compressor and am using it to convert a very large batch of video files. All is well--the conversions are successful--and yet Activity Monitor shows CompressorTranscoder never going over 200% CPU usage, and I'm on a quad-core (single-processor) Mac Pro. Also, CompressorTranscoder is listed as "not responding." I saw other threads about that, but I wasn't sure if my situation was exactly the same, or what to make of it.
So, my questions: is there a setting I should change so that Compressor will use all four cores? Is the red "not responding" message in Activity Monitor cause for concern? Do you have any other tips for getting Compressor to work as fast as possible?
Thanks in advance.

    Unfortunately you have taken an Apple product outside of the area where Apple currently does business. There isn't legally a way around this. Apple cannot license apps to you where you currently live.

  • I thought my pictures was safe in the iCloud, but I was not aware of the 30 days and the 1000 pictures, so I lost quite a lot of pictures... is there any possibilities to find them again? I have only used iphone and ipad.

    Not through iCloud, but are they still on your iPad or iPhone?  Open Photos, then go to the Albums and see if they are still in the main Camera Roll rather than My Photo Stream.  If they are in there, it would be a good idea to sync the devices to a computer so you can store the photos.

  • Avoid White Screen and (Not Responding) Message?

    Is there a way to force FrameMaker to update the screen when it becomes unresponsive during lengthy processes?
    I wrote an ExtendScript to open all files in a book (silently), import settings across all files, update the book, and then save as a PDF file. The script runs seven times, each time with different settings to control various things such as conditional text and variables.
    The problem is that FrameMaker churns on certain commands, such as opening all the files and importing the settings. During this time, it might take up to 10 minutes to complete the command across all files in the book. If I click off of FrameMaker onto another applicaiton, and then go back to FrameMaker I see only a FrameMaker container window with a white background. The title bar shows the book name and (Not Responding). The script is still running and everything is fine. But there is no feedback to the user to indicate what's happening.
    Is there no way to force FrameMaker to refresh the window and remove (Not Responding) from the title bar?
    Thanks,
    Jason

    Hi Jason,
    This is more of a limitation of FrameMaker's implementation of the "OWL" interface. The Not Responding title bar and white screen appear not just with scripts and FDK clients, but also with other long FrameMaker operations, like updating large books, etc. In fact, in Kapil Verma's FrameMaker 11 webinar yesterday, the same thing happened when he was creating a book from a ditamap.
    One way you can minimize the effect of this is to use a progress bar with your script, so people will know the progress of the script in spite of the white screen, etc.

  • Using NULL and NOT NULL in prompted filters

    Dear all,
    While trying to grap the concept of prompted filters in sap bo web intelligence, I had a question whether why we cannot use NULL and NOT NULL while creating a prompted filters in our report.

    HI,
    'Is Null' and 'Not Null' are the predefined functions in webi which only eliminate the null values or considering only null values.
    'Is Null' and 'Not Null' are itself predefined functions that why you are not getting  prompts.
    Null values are standard across the databases so this is defined  as a function in webi to specific eliminate the null values.
    If something is not standard then there is option in the webi to use different operator with static values or with prompts.
    More more information on Null see the Null wiki page.

  • HT1692 Have recently installed itunes and outlook on a new computer.  Have multiple email accounts set up in Outlook tho only use contacts and calendar in relation to one of these. Cannot sync itunes with the correct contacts and calendars, Help!

    My new computer is 64-bit running Windows 7 pro, SP1 and Microsoft Office 2010 Pro Plus 32-bit
    My phone is a 4S runing iOS 6.1.3
    Very frustrated now that I have recently installed itunes and outlook on this new computer.  Everything worked perfectly ok on my laptop which was also 64-bit Windows 7 and running 32-bit Microsoft Office 2010 Pro.  I have multiple email accounts set up in Outlook tho only use contacts and calendar in relation to one of these. Cannot sync itunes with the correct contacts and calendars, when I sync the calendar and contacts are empty.  Not sure if there is any way to point itunes to particular address books and calendars.
    I have installed and uninstalled itunes 3 times and thank goodness have a backup
    Can anyone help please?
    thanks in anticipation

    I had my home computer set up to sync to work's Exchange server. It worked well, but I didn't like seeing work email messages and other programs trying to sync with my default Outlook folder, which was then the Exchange (& work related) .ost file. I know there are various ways to manage those problems using filters, view, subfolders, etc., but it was a hassle for me. I think it could work well for many other folks.
    For now, I have published my work calendar and subscribed to that calendar on my home computer. So I have view only access to my calendar on my home computer (and I can add/edit calendar items on my iPad (or Outlook Web Access) when away from work). This is not quite what I wanted, but it may work.
    It almost makes me long for the days when I used my Windows Mobile Treo to sync back and forth between exchange at work and outlook at home (but had many sync conflicts as a result).

  • Itunes 10 update on windows 7 makes it freeze and not respond

    Ever since I updated my itunes to the newest version my itunes will freeze and not respond everytime I open it.
    I use windows 7 and have not add-ons
    any help

    Many thanks.
    That's consistent with an application (other than QuickTime itself) having dropped old QuickTime componentry in your system files.
    So just in case we'll go looking for older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
    First we'll need to change some view settings.
    In your Start menu, open Computer.
    In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
    In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
    Click OK.
    Now in Computer, open your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you have your operating system installed on).
    Open the "Windows" folder.
    If you have a 32-bit version of Windows, open the "System32" folder.
    If you have a 64-bit version of Windows, open the "SysWOW64" folder.
    What files and folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the title? (In a standard installation of Quicktime you should be seeing precisely two files... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

    My mini ipod appears off and not respond to any commands when pressed the buttons to reset, apple logo appeared and then the apple support site and it shuts down. already tried all the steps, but none worked, and when I plug it into my computer it does not appear in the iTunes bar. what do I do?

    If MacKeeper corrupted the Recovery partition then even I underestimated its potential for damage. Garbage "cleaning" apps will cause misery but I have not found that the Recovery partition to have been affected by using MacKeeper or anything like it. I doubt that it did so, but I have learned not to underestimate the potential for such things to result in system corruption.
    Before concluding your Mac has a hardware failure, try booting OS X Internet Recovery by holding command option r on startup (three fingers). That will force your iMac to bypass the Recovery partition altogether, and convey the ability to create a new one.
    An Internet connection will be required (wired or wireless).
    At the Mac OS X Utilities screen, select Disk Utility. Select your startup volume (usually named "Macintosh HD") and click the Repair Disk button. Describe any errors it reports in red. If Disk Utility reports "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK" in green then you can be reasonably (though not completely) assured your hard disk is in good working order.
    Assuming the HD remains usable you can then use Disk Utility to erase it. Reinstall OS X, restore your essential software and other files, and don't reinstall the junk.

  • Airport utility only shows disc and not airplay

    airport utility only shows disc and not airplay

    Actually......IF......one is using an older 5.x version of AirPort Utility......AND.....an AirPort Express, a Music icon is displayed at the top of the screen. If you click the Music icon, there are settings to enable AirPlay and establish a password for the service.
    The newer Mac 6.x and iPad and iPhone versions of AirPort Utility automatically enable AirPlay, but display no settings for this.
    Since ralphington is using Mavericks (10.9.4), there are no controls for AirPlay displayed in his version of AirPort Utility.

  • I am able to search only by text and not by Key in filter.

    We have a variable x which has bex properties in the infoobject level to
    1.display:   Key and Text
    2.text type: long text
    3.Query def filter value selection: Only values in infoprovider
    4.Query Exe filter value selection: Only posted values for navigation.
    in the Query designer to the object we have the same properties for 1 and 2 as above.
              On execueting the report in web,  In the variable screen for x <b>we can search for both Key and text</b>. (we have two radio buttons for Key and text),
               Whereas in the <b>result area for the filter</b> for x I am able to search <b>only by text and not by Key</b>. I want to search by both Key and text in filter screen. 
    Can u suggest suitable solution for this ASAP.

    I have been working on a similar problem and have found that it depends on what kind of InfoProvider you are using.
    If you are using an InfoCube, the setting that seems to control this is on the maintenance screen (Admin Workbench -> {InfoProvider to be edited} -> Change -> Extras -> Structur-Specific InfoObject Properties. If you want the key and text to display on the variables screen (which you already have), make sure the 'Display' is set to "Key and Text". If you want key and text to display on the filter screen, make sure the 'F4 Query' is set to "Values in Master Data Table". (You may also have to set the characteristic to display key and text in the query, but it sounds like you already have done this.)
    For an ODS, the settings are the same, but the path to get there is different. Go to Admin Workbench -> {ODS to be edited} -> Change -> {InfoObject to be edited} -> Right-click -> ODS-object Specific Properties. Same settings as above after this.
    For a MultiProvider, I found that the settings on the InfoObject itself seemed to control the display on the Web, so I ended up setting: Display = "Key and Text"; Query Def Filter Value Selection = "Values in Master Data Table"; and Query Exe Filter Value Selection = "Values in Master Data Table". That may be a bit of overkill, but I wanted to be sure to get both key and text in all situations.
    I also found that the settings for navigational attributes (e.g., 0PLANT__0REGION) for any kind of InfoProvider must be set at the InfoObject level (e.g., 0REGION), as above.
    Even with all of this, I still have a couple of InfoObjects left that I can't get to display both key and text for some unknown reason.
    Hope this helps...

  • Safari freezes and not respond, Chrome works great why?

    I just upgraded to Yosemite, and Safari keeps freezing and not responding I have tried everything from removing aches, remove web history but keep freezing. On the other hand, Chrome works fantastic so needs to be something only related with Safari. Apple says Safari goes 6x faster than other web browser, well in my hands in can prepare my lunch and finish it before it opens one page, so 6x faster maybe in Cupertino because not in my laptop. Any suggestions of how to fix the Safari????

    Hi ...
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
    Click:  Remove All Website Data
    No open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that didn't help, try troubleshooting extensions.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
    If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
    Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect:  Allow all other plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.

  • Slow start up and not responding Firefox 3.6.13

    Slow start up and not responding when I open Firefox 3.6.13. As long as 1 minute. I tried in save mode and it doesn't seem to happen. I used McAfee before and now use Norton IS with Real Time Malwarebytes. Still the same speed opening up, so the virus software is not causing the problem I think. I disable a lot of the add-on and still the same problem. Any suggestions?
    Vista OS

    If other softwares runs fast and smooth it's obvious that it's a Firefox-problem.
    Probably because of a corrupt profile.
    I have done a "checklist" you could follow here: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/667207#answer-124643
    Regarding slow start up, it's a common and old problem.
    Not all FF-users experience it as a problem, but I used to belong to them who suffered.
    If your cold start up (the first start after a Windows boot) is really slow, but a warm start (the second time you restart Firefox) is much faster - then I think I can help you.
    Try my own simple solution here: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/762446#answer-119951
    I run on Win 7 64-bit and on Firefox 4.0 betas, but that doesn't matter as it works also on older Windows and Firefox versions.
    Regarding your anti-virus software. I have tried the most of them. The best tradeoff is in my opinion Eset Smart Security (NOD32).

    I hope this will help you :)

    Why are my keys sticking and not responding? No moisture has come near the laptop.

    Andy-
    When printing, the printer should be visible if it is an AirPrint printer, connected by WiFi or to a WiFi router via Ethernet (NOT USB), and the WiFi router is capable of correctly handling Bonjour data required by AirPrint.
    To determine if your printer is capable of AirPrint, see <AirPrint-enabled printers>.  Even if it is on that list, it may be necessary to update the printer's firmware before AirPrint will work.
    It may be possible to change the setup or update the firmware of a WiFi router that does not work with AirPrint.  Contact the router's manufacturer for info, if that is the problem.
    Search the iTunes App store for iPad printing Apps from your printer manufacturer.  There are other printing Apps such as Print n Share, but these are not as convenient or as easy to use as AirPrint.
    It is also possible to share your computer's printer as AirPrint over WiFi.  One program that does this is Printopia for Macintosh.  For a free solution, search the web for AirPrint Activator.  Versions are available for both PC and Mac computers.
