CS4 Encore keeps freezing during transcoding process.

I'm using CS4 and trying to make a DVD that is 30 minutes long using Encore. It keeps freezing after about 5 minutes during the transcoding process and seems to always freeze at the same spot according to the progress bars. I don't get an error message...it just stops and has to be forced to close. Shorter videos seem to go through just fine as long as they are not over 12 minutes long. Any ideas? System is running Intel i7 975, 20gb ram, 2gb ddr5 Radeon video card. I've made longer videos in the past...this is a new issue.

Encore CS3 Freezes when Transcoding

I opened an older DVD menu that was made in Encore CS2. I made some changes to it cleaned up orphan timeline and dead links and added audio to menu. When I tried to export it to DVD it freezes when transcoding and locks my work station. I've done this several times on CS2 but this is the first time I have done this in CS3 and I get this problem. I tried transcoding seperately and my PC still freezes. The encore preview menue is great. Does the program only transcode AVI or does it do AVI and MP3. I really dont understand fully what it does when transcoding because either it didn't do this in CS2 or it did but it was flawless so I paid it know attention. Any assistance would be great.

Why does my Flash Player keep freezing during video play back?

I have the very lastest version for Windows 7 64bit OS and it keeps freezing during video play back. The previous versions did not do this. I have to keep the cursor moving inside the video window to prevent the player freezing. I have deslected HARDWARE ACCELERATION and it does not help. Why is this happening and how do I correct this situation?

Right click ANY Flash content and choose "Setings".
Click the folder icon (center tab) and increase the storage to at least 10Mb.

My BB Curve Keeps Freezing During Calls

Help please, does anyone know why my BB keeps freezing during calls?

Hi there,
First check two setting within your device :
On your Homescreen go to Options > Device > Storage > Make sure " Enable Compression " is UNchecked or UNmarked .
Homescreen > Options > Security > Advanced Security Setting > Memory Cleaner > Br sure it is Disabled .
Then Check again , But if you already have those setting as I suggested then Boot your device on Safe Mode :
KB17877 : How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in Safe Mode
On Safe Mode don't try to Click or run any application , Just make a few phone calls to see if your device freezes again, If freezing cease then those freezing issues are caused by any of your Installed 3rd party applications . All you can do is delete one application at a time then reboot and check unless you find the original culprit responsible for this issue .

My MacBook keeps freezing during startup

I got my MacBook Pro in 2012. Currently, it keeps freezing while I try to turn it on. I get the apple logo and the spinning wheel, and eventually it freezes. I've tried starting in safe mode and it froze. I've tried recovery, it "restarts due to a problem during start up" and then freezes again. When it freezes, there are little green pixels on the screen as well.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Red flashes created during transcode process

Hi everyone,
Does anyone know why my one frame red flashes are being created during the transcode process of my DVD's? When i watch my files ready to create the DVD there are no red flashes and the file plays fine. When i create the DVD with menus etc and watch it back there are no red flashes and it plays fine. As soon as the file is transcoded, whether as part of the burning process, or during DVD creation, these one frame red flashes appear . I have watched the films on different players and they are burnt onto the final disc image. I have tried a whole host of transcode settings whether 1 pass cbr, 2 pass vbr, 25i or 25p, working to 4, 7 or 8MB. It does not make any difference. The red flashes persist!
Any ideas?
Cheers, Ruth

IDVD freezing during burn process

I was trying to burn my DVD project onto a disc and iDVD kept freezing during the middle of it. It just so happened to always freeze during step 2 of the process, but Im not sure if that is just a coincidence or not. Any suggestions at how to get the program to burn my project without freezing up in the middle ?
Thanks
I am using iDVD 4

Thanks dispatx.com, that page was of immense help. I found much of it very encouraging simply knowing that someone has gone through the exact same thing, missing deadlines, sleep, etc.
I gathered as much info as I could and have successfully burned a DVD image now using the "Easter Egg" hurz & pfurz. Why doesn't apple include that in the program?
I cleaned up my powerbook prior to burning with OnyX. I trashed the iDVD preferences. I created a new project in iDVD using the same footage I had exported from FCP as QT movies, not self contained. I included songs I downloaded from the iTunes store (debunking the myth that the protected songs foul up the burning process). I held down ctrl and clicked burn, named the image, and then it went to work.
Timeline:
6:00am started step 1, 10 secondes later, step 2 begins.
9:00 Step 3, Asset Encoding begins (Hallelujah, I never could get to this step)
9:50 Step 4 begins, mulitplexing
10:20 Image is ready and iDVD is asking me to name the image again, I finally figured out this gives me the option of burning several copies, I did and it only took another 15 minutes to create another image instead of starting the whole process over again.
10:40 I drop it into disk utility and burn a 3.7 GB DVD in 20 minutes.
Oliver Luker accurately observes and records CPU usage at each of the steps so that helped me know NOT to cancel even when Activity monitor showed iDVD as not responding.
I went with best performance because too many people were reporting over 60 minutes and best quality as not working well, and I need this DVD done. I had an extras section in the DVD that I yanked. But I don't understand why we are limited to less than 60 minutes. This angers me a bit and I'm determined to find a way to have a good looking DVD with over 60 minutes of footage that will burn through iDVD. I don't want to buy DVDSP, yet.
Good luck everyone.

ITunes keeps freezing during songs

My itunes just keeps freezing every few seconds, during songs.
Looked for solutions on forums, nothing helped, saw somene suggesting to format the macbook pro, so i did it and it's problem presists.
This all started when I downloaded the new itunes version (11) by the way.
help would be appreciated

Hi Kengc2,
I'm having the same problem as you.
Running
OS: Win 8 64bit
Ram: 8GB
Intel Core i7 - 2600k @ 3.5GHz
Must be something in Windows 8, as I did not have any problems with Win 7.
Having said that my itunes foldered is stored on my NAS so not sure is the slow network speed is causing the issue.
Interested to know whether windows makes a hot fix or whethers apple are secretly trying to get more Apple customers

My iTunes keeps freezing during syncing and wont let me put any music on. What do I do?

I have a PC and the newest iPod touch. I was receiving error message -54 while syncing recently so i checked on this site and found out that some of my files could be locked. Sure enough I went through all of my files, found and deleted all the locked ones and wiped my itunes. I then kept getting a error message telling me that the sync session couldn't start. Then I wiped my ipod and uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes multiple times. But each time I try to sync my ipod, itunes freezes and I have to restart the entire program. I am at a complete loss as to what to do. I have tried everything I could, and have had no luck. The program keeps freezing on me and doens't allow me to sync my ipod or my ipad, so it would seem to be a problem with my itunes but I don't know what to do, nevermind how to fix it.

You will lose all of the content on the ipod, but you will have to restore. If you cannot then follw this:
iOS: Unable to update or restore

MacBook keeps freezing during Time Machine?

Hello! My computer keeps freezing up about 10 minutes into Time Machine. I have an internal 320gb drive and I am attempting to back it up to the Maxtor OneTouch4 Mini 250gb external hard drive I was using previously to back up my PowerBook G4. Also is it possible to keep my G4 files on there and use it to back up my MacBook?

Thanks for the link to the safe mode start up info - I'll give that a go tonight.
Among other things, that will check the directory structure and fix it if possible. That might be all you need.
I'm on 10.6.8 and my brother upgraded me so I guess he still has the discs, I will check. Is that for a reinstallation?
You need the main one to reinstall OSX (only; that doesn't disturb anything else), or to restore from TM backups. You may not need to do either, but should always have the disc handy.
What did your Mac ship with, and do you have the original discs? One of them has an Apple Hardware Test specific to your Mac. It's not real extensive, but might find any hardware problems.
Only I'm not really wanting to do anything like that til I've backed up - bit of a catch 22!!
If you're sure the backups were completing until recently, eject and disconnect the drive until you need it. No sense risking any damage to them!
If you have or can borrow another external, you might be able to make a copy of the current contents of your HD on it, via the Restore tab in Disk Utility. From your description it sounds doubtful, but might be worth a try.
And/or, if you have some CDs/DVDs or a USB Thumb drive, you might be able to copy some stuff to them.

My Foxfire keeps freezing during use, and there are pop-ups that appear during each selection of an application

What more do you need. Foxfire keeps freezing on my computer and it is sending pop-ups when any application is triggered.

It sounds like you are having problems with pop-ups. Most are adds

My iPhoto keeps freezing during import?

I just downloaded the new iPhoto from the app store, but it keeps freezing in the middle of importing
If rebuilding the iPhoto Library as suggested by LarryHN does not help in this case, try to import using Image Capture.
Maybe one of your photos or videos is unreadable and needs to be removed, before you can import to iPhoto.
With Image Capture you can import to a folder on your Desktop, inspect the photos, if they are readable, and then import them to iPhoto from this folder.

My iPod keeps freezing during the middle of songs etc.?

My iPod keeps freezing in the middle of songs and even when i plug it into the computer to charge. I've tried to restore it but iTunes rejects it, saying that it has an error. what can I do?

I have an Ipod touch. Recently it has started stopping in the middle of the songs. Sometimes it stops completely and sometimes it goes to the next song.
All the songs is it stopping on are recent purchases from Itunes. A couple of the songs stopped midway while playing them on Itunes. I did unsync the new songs and then added them again.
I tried the reset mentioned above, but it didn't help.
I have over 3000 songs, I'd like to avoid unsyncing and resyncing if at all possible.
the restore to factory defaults removes all the updates, doesn't it?
I'd appreciate any help.

What do I do when Itunes freezes during last process of sync

What do I do when Itunes freezes during final steps of sync

Cancel the sync and try again. But, before you do, make sure you have turned off any firewall/anti-virus software you have running. This often is the root cause of failed sync's.
