CS5 Windows 7 Lag

Hi,
I'm hoping others have experienced this and can give me some direction. We are in the process of migrating our entire Art Department (8 Artists) to Windows 7 and CS5. I have the first machine for testing and setup but I am experiencing a lot of lag in Ai CS5. Primarily when closing documents or changing focus between other programs we run, sometimes as much as 10-15 seconds and windows reports Ai as "Not Responding". I do not see the same issues in photoshop and I run the same software setup at home and don't experience this on a lower end CPU and Memmory.
Work PC Specs: (the one that lags)
Core i7 860
8GB DDR3
Nvidia GeForce 310
500 GB SATA HD
Home Specs:
AMD Phenom 2 X2
4GB DDR3
Nvidia GTX 270
500 GB SATA
Any Ideas?

They were being stored in the windows fonts folder but that was the first thing I thought of and removed them with no improvement afterwards.
Edit: I feel dumb now... I forgot windows caches fonts like OSX does. A restart ended up solving the problem after the fonts were removed.

[SOLVED] Windows lag when moved...?

Using Xfce, with and without composite, the windows lag when being moved. It's like the whole window isn't held together properly; the window movement is kind of choppy, but still smooth, if that makes any sense.
This makes for a rather bad experience. And I'm clueless as to what causes this. It's certainly not my HW:
CPU: i5-2500k
GPU: GTX 460
RAM: 8GB, 1600mhz
Also, even more disturbing, is that when moving a window there seems, if you look closely enough, to be a white after-effect where text and the pointer was a few moments ago. As an example: If I grab a window and move it in a small circle, this happens.
Any ideas? Running nuts here...

Okay I'll try but I can't guarantee the completeness. Here are all the steps I managed to recollect:
First install:
compiz, compiz-decorator-gtk, ccsm, compiz-fusion-plugins-main
the decorator and plugins are somewhat optional but will provide you with gtk window borders and more options.
then edit the following paragraph in /etc/xdg/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-session.xml
<property name="Client0_Command" type="array">
<value type="string" value="compiz"/>
<value type="string" value="ccp"/>
</property>
(This replaces xfwm4 with compiz as the default window manager for Xfce)
Then after running
sudo nvidia-xconfig
add the following line to the "Device" section within /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Option "TripleBuffer" "True"
also add
nvidia-settings -l
to your autostart.
Now open up ccsm and within "General Options" on the tab "Display Settings":
tick the option for "Sync to VBlank"
UNtick the option "Detect refresh rate"
drag the slider for the refresh rate to match the refresh rate of your display (60 Hz in my case)
Go back to the main page of ccsm and open "Window decoration". Insert the following line into the "command" field:
gtk-window-decorator --replace
(This will provide you with your gtk borders on compiz otherwise you would have to use emerald)
On the main page of ccsm tick "Move windows" under "Window Management". (Otherwise you won't be able to move windows around at all)
Restart your system and it should load compiz now. If compiz is acting funny you can always temporarily switch back to xfwm by running "xfwm4 --replace".
Note that you will have the best video experience with mplayer (no GUI).
Consider using vdpau as video output with the corresponding codecs if you don't plan to play 10bit H264 videos, otherwise stick to xv.

Can you sell Used Adobe Photoshop CS5 (Windows)software?

I have no use for the Adobe Photoshop CS5 (Windows). Is it possible to sell the software on ebay?
What about licenses?
Thanks,

Yes, you can. Read: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/152/tn_15281.html

CS3 Mac - upgrade to CS5 Windows

Hopefully someone here can come up with a definitive answer please?
I have had CS3 installed and registered on a Mac since 2008. I want to upgrade to CS5 but change to Windows as that's my preference with photo editing software (I already use Elements 7-8-9 on a PC).
Looking around, I just cannot find a definitive answer as to whether I can upgrade my Mac CS3 licence to a CS5 Windows licence - I see the question has been asked the other way round a few years back but the answers conflicted: Yes, no problem; No, no way; yes but very complicated, have to write to Adobe. Not much help.
Can someone give me a definitive answer please rather than a guess? There is no way I can afford to buy the complete new product (I'm now a pensioner but have programmed since 1978 and been a photographer since 1961) so an upgrade is my only route. I don't want to buy the upgrade then find it's not working....
Thanks.

This is just a user to user forum so no definative answers here.
Your best bet is to call Adobe and ask. I know you can do it, just don't know the price.
Also, CS6 is set to start shipping on May 6. If you buy CS5 now you will get a free upgrade to CS6.

How to use foreign language soft in CS5/Window 7

I use a language software (Vietnamese) for photo captions. It works in CS5 in Window XP Professional but not in Window 7. What do I have to do to be able to use the language software in CS5/Window 7 ? I did check the all the type options but it still does not work.

Is this language software advertised to be compatible with Windows 7? The incompatibility may not have anything to do with Photoshop.
One of the big differences between Windows 7 (also Vista) and XP is the User Account Control facility. It is possible that if you can't get a newer version of this software that you might be able to make it work by reducing the level of Windows 7 UAC. Click Start and type UAC in the search box to access the setting to do that.

Norwegian charcters Unicode problem, InDesign CS5, Windows 7 64 bit

Hello
I have a problem with moving files from within an indesign plugin. I try to move an image file to the same folder as the inDesign document.
The problem is that the document folder contains norweigian characters. The folder name is: Boligdrøm_FW. If the folder is renamed to: Boligdrom_FW, it works without a problem.
The customer is using InD CS5, Windows 7, 64 bit. Im using Windows 7, 32 bit system, I can not reproduce the problem.
Has anyone encountered this problem?
Does anyone have a quick solutions?
Best regards
/ Pontus
Im using the folowing code to copy the file:
res = MoveFile((LPCWSTR)newFilepath.GrabWString(), (LPCWSTR)documentPath.GrabWString());
Im using this code to get the path to the document:
IDataBase* db = ::GetDataBase(doc);
if (db) {
     const IDFile    *dbSysFile = db->GetSysFile();
      if (dbSysFile) {
          PMString    documentPath("");
          SDKUtilities::GetPathName(*dbSysFile,documentPath);
          IDFile        f(documentPath);
          documentPath.Truncate(f.GetFileName().NumUTF16TextChars());

Not sure if this will help. Look at the PMString translation stuff. ( SetTranslated ).

CS5 MAC OS - CS5 Windows

I currently own CS5 MAC OS and have never installed it on my computer knowing that I was going to upgrade my computer. I have decided on a new computer that has Windows 8. Can I exchange my CS5 MAC OS version for the CS5 Windows? and is CS5 compatible with Windows 8?
Thanks

No, you can only swap current versions. You would have to upgrade to CS6 or go Creative Cloud. In the latter case the platform switch would be a moot point, anyway. Otehrwise refer to this:
Order an Adobe product platform swap or language swap

CS5 Windows/Mac Serial Number

I have photoshop cs5 extended which I brought a few years ago for my windows laptop. I have now purchased a macbook and seem unable to install the program on my mac, is there I can still install the software?

I don't own a Mac so I can't begin to say which emulator might work best. I have heard of Bootcamp and Parallels (I believe).
CS5 is not for sale, so even if I would recommend buying it it would have to be by taking your chances with some thirds party vendor. You can buy an upgrade to CS6 (Mac) with your CS5 (Windows) and save some money that way.

CS5 Windows to Mac

Can I change CS5 Windows to Mac and how much does it cost?

You will have to buy the upgrade to CS6 and make the platform switch along with it...

If you're just looking for the downloads, try this:
Direct Download Links for Adobe Software
Otherwise things are as Mr. Pfaffenbichler said - there is no way for you to buy an official upgrade to CS5 at this point. And even if you can find someone willing to sell his version, this would require transfer of all the stuff, not just the upgrade package with a full license transfer.
Transfer an Adobe product license
In light of all that trouble, you might just bite the bullet and get a proper new version of CS6.

Adobe Photoshop CS5 (Windows 7) Lagging Brushes & Tools

What I'm Using:
- Toshiba F60 Qosmio Laptop w/ Windows 7
- Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64 bit)
Hey Everyone,
I'm having an issue with my new Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64 bit) installed on my Brand new Laptop (Toshiba F60 Qosmio). Basically I have optimized via the Edit > Preferences > Performance menu in Photoshop CS5 but Im still having major issues with my Brushes, Patch, etc. Tools lagging while using them. When you enable the tool and use it, it will be atleast 0.5 - 1.0 Seconds behind the movement of the cursor. My Laptop is brand new and fully optimized for graphic design and seems to run every other application seamless. Adobe Photoshop launches quick and smoothly but once using the tools it has the same lag time.
Does anyone know what I can do to fix this? Its driving me nuts and really cutting into my work schedule.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Darren

Hi Chris,
I will definitely give that a try. I had a tech set up my computer after i purchased it less than a week ago but it is a possibility that he missed it. I will try and run an update this weekend and see if that increases the speed when OpenGL is enabled. I will get back to you on the issue in the next few days.
Thanks for your insight and helpful suggestion.
Much appreciated.

Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects CS5.5 Lagging Horribly with Dynamic Link

I just bought a brand new computer. It is a beast
Windows 7 64-bit
Intel i7-980 6 cores with HT = 12 CPU cores
Nvidia GTX 570HD 1280mb 328 bit
120gb SSD sata 3
600 gb Velociraptor drive 10000rpm
8gb DDR3 1866MHZ ram
So you would think I would get no lag. But for some reason, when I edit in premier pro or after effects, especially when I use dynamic link with premiere and after effects. It lags realllllly badly. I am talking about 5fps and I have to pause and wait like 20 secs then hit play again to get 5 secs of smoothness and then the laggyness returns. I am not even using heavy footage. It is footage off of a Canon 5D Mark II h.264. I tried messing around with all the settings but I cannot get anywhere. Anyone know what the problem might be? I don't have any other programs running since I just installed these. This lag is really holding me back and I cannot edit properly because of it.

Your memory is ill configured, since you are using it in dual channel mode instead of triple channel mode and 8 MB is about bare minimum. You would be better off if you were to increase memory to 24 GB. Secondly, your disk configuration is the absolute minimum requirement, so adding a couple of disks will help performance as well.

Mistake. It is one of the most demanding codecs on the market. Look here: Adobe Forums: System requirements for CS5
You could try the PPBM5 Benchmark to see how well your setup performs.
