CS5 takes forever to open via remote desktop

Hi All,
We are using CS5 and have it installed on a machine, which has a production license with Darwin VDP software.
The way we work, is to do all the design work on our local copy of Indesign, and run productions using the pilot license of Darwin (which allows you to proof the first 5 records.) Once happy, we remote desktop to the production machine, log on and run the full produciton.
We upgraded from CS4 to CS5 this morning, and all worked well for a short amount of time. By the time the 3rd of 4th user had remoted to the production machine, InDesign took an age to load.
It is work mentioning that this is the 3rd PC we have used as our production machine, and we had the same probelm with CS4.
Any ideas?!
Matthew

For starters, I'm pretty sure that's an EULA violation. Even if it's not, you're not in any kind of supported territory so you're pretty much on your own here.

    Don't know if that would be a failing hard drive, but it may be that you are out of available space. How much hard drive space do you have available? Please highlight the Macintosh HD icon and then press Command and I for a get info window. Once open, please copy and post the following:

  • Why will Firefox will not open when connecting via Remote Desktop?

    I have Firefox v. 6.0 or 7.0 installed on a Win 7 machine. It works fine locally, but when I connect to the machine via Remote Desktop it will not start.

  • ITunes takes forever to open!!

    When I open iTunes in my Dock, it takes at least five minutes to open. I timed it tonight. This is a fairly recent problem, maybe for the last month or so. I'm wondering if anyone knows if this could be because I have a LOT of iPhone Applications in iTunes now?
    I'm also having problems with other apps on my Mac, such as iPhoto running very slow, but only iTunes takes forever to open. iPhoto opens quickly, freezes a lot while using it, and takes several minutes to close, probably due to having over 20,000 photos in it.
    So I'm thinking the iTunes problem probably isn't related to the iPhoto problems.
    Also, I just did an "Archive and Install" with the Leopard OS at the advice of an Apple store Genius, but it didn't fix or change anything. In fact, the Install took six hours, which I believe is longer than normal.
    Does anyone know if a large amount of App store apps in iTunes can affect how long it takes to open?
    Or should I be asking this question at the iPhone forum?
    Thanks in advance, Deb

    Hello back, and thank you both for responding. I had no idea there was two separate iTunes forums. I guess I'll go post to the right one.
    I'm the only Mac user in a house of PC users, so my three guys are no help to me. Well, one of them has a Macbook, but he uses his desktop PC the most. Anyway...
    I have 50 Gigs left on my hard drive and that's only because I had to do two "Archive and Installs" on my iMac last week. That left me with over 20 gigs in two "Previous System Folders". I'm going to delete them eventually to get that space back, but my problems were happening before when I had almost 75 gigs, and are still happening now. Nothing has changed.
    My iTunes has maybe 10 gigs of stuff total, with most of it music, then maybe iPhone applications (probably 2 or 3 gigs), but only one short 45 minute video, and a couple of podcasts. Nothing else. I'm a middle aged mom, so I'm not much into iTunes except for my iPhone stuff.
    So, I'm confused by iTunes reluctance to open, but will go post on the Mac iTunes forum.
    Thanks for taking the time to respond to me!
    Greatly appreciated... Deb

  • ITunes interface funky after connecting via remote desktop

    I connected to my PC via remote desktop while iTune was opened, and ever since the software interface seems to be corrupted somehow, even after running the repair function in add / remove software and rebooting several times. The background of the software is now pink and the fonts are all messed up.
    Has anyone else ever experienced this and are there any suggestions for fixing it short of completely uninstalling and reinstalling the software?

    Make sure that in your Display Settings colour is set to 32 bit. See this link for details: iTunes - Pink iTunes window under iTunes XP/Vista

    How long does it usually take from taping the icon until you can take photos?
    My iPhone 4 takes 5 seconds, since you're using iPhone 4S I would imagine it should take no more 5 seconds.
    Having said that, holding the Home and Sleep/Wake button until your iPhone restarts has shown to show improvements in overall performance (since it quits all applications). Users I know have also experiance better performance by updating to the latest version of iOS.

  • Preview takes forever to open, much slower than on my old MacBook. It has been like this since I bought the computer last January. Why is Lion so much slower?

    Preview takes forever to open, much slower than on my old MacBook running Snow Leopard. It has been like this since I bought the computer last January. Any ideas?

    Take it to an Apple Store for testing. If you don't get immediate satisfaction, exchange it for another one, which you can do at no cost, no questions asked, within 14 days of delivery.

  • My I Mac is very slow or not responding.  Mail takes forever to open and pinwheel continues for along time

    My I Mac, using 10.8.4 is very slow, mail takes forever to open and the spinning pinwheel starts every time I try to use mail.  any suggestions?

    What year, screen size, CPU speed and amount of RAM installed?
    How full is your Mac's hard drive?
    How full is your Apple Mail?
    How many applications do you run simultaneously in the background while working in another application?
    Do you run any antivirus software on your Mac? Antivirus software can slow down the normal operation of OS X.
    Do you run any "crapware" like Mackeeper or any other type of "crapware" like so called hard drive "cleaning" apps?

  • Problems conencting via Remote Desktop Connection to a server

    hello! i have a problem connecting to one of our servers via Remote Desktop Connection. The story goes like this: the server works fine, i can connect using my credentials with no problems, the firewall is up. But, when i restart the server, after loading
    windows, the server wont respond. I try to ping its IP Address and no respond. The only way so far to fix this bug is to log on localy (without remote) and disable the Windows firewall. Instantly the server starts to respond and i can connect to it via remote
    desktop conenction. If i restart the server, the problem appears again and the solution to it this time is to enable the windows firewall back again. This enable/disable firewall thing doesnt seem right. Does anyone have any idea?
    thank you!

    Hi Dede,
    Your box is up to date with windows updates.
    Witch windows server are you using?
    Maybe review the firewall exceptions.
    Att,

  • How to run windows mobile device center via remote desktop

    I am developing mobile application in Microsoft Visual Studio 2008. I connect to my computer via remote desktop and my operating system is Windows Server 2012 R2. In order to test the application, I use mobile device emulator. I can run device emulator but
    there occurs a problem when I try to cradle the device. I found out that this is because wmdc cannot run via remote desktop. Is there any way to run wmdc via remote desktop? I searched other topics but there is no solution to this.
    Note : WMDC works when I directly use the computer not with remote desktop.

    Please check this thread to see if there is one solution may solve your problem.

  • File icons via Remote Desktop

    While working on an app, I seem to have run into a problem.
    When you get filetype icons via File.icon when using Remote
    Desktop, the icons always come back blank. Below is a test program.
    When I run it on my box natively, it returns the icon as expected.
    When I connect to the box (XP Pro) via Remote Desktop, the icons
    always come back blank. Can someone run my program and check to see
    if it's just my box that's the problem?? Just type in a path to a
    file (e.g. C:\BOOT.INI) and see if it shows the icon both locally
    and remotely. Thanks!

    Hello TonyJK,
    Could you please explain a bit about the sentence ‘the file path for Remote Access’?
    If it is the file path of Bitdefender, to receive  better support, it is recommended to seek help from the related Bitdefender forum.
