CS6 panels hang + Prefs keep resetting...Help!

I've been using CS6 for over a year and no issues. I upgraded to Lion, no issues. Then two weeks ago InDesign started going wonky:
- right-side panels will not open upon clicking for 20-30 seconds, very laggy and make it impossible to work.
- Every time I turn off my system, my InDesign preferences re-set to default (Except for default font, that stays the same).
I've looked through the forums and no solution seems to apply.
My system:
OS Lion 10.7.5
2.93 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
16 GB DDR3
I use Suitcase Fusion 4, and have been since installing CS6...no new plugins installed since issue started.
Thank you much!

Well, it's now May and we have been busy at work and haven't had time to post on this issue anymore. I uninstalled all 3rd party plugins but to no avail. I am still having this same issue. I have also tried all of the above mentioned. The only thing that I haven't done yet (and may do this weekend) is uninstall/reinstall..... Anyone else having this issue?

Hi Darin35;
Since you have a PowerMac G4, why did you post in the G5 forum?
You might get more knowledgeable answers if you repost over in the G4 forum.

System Prefs keep resetting

I have this thing where some System Preferences keep resetting to defaults between restarts: particularly affected are Displays (switching the displays menu item off) and MenuMeters (switching all its menu bar displays off). This would happen on my old G4 Cube and my old PowerBook G4. Over the last month or so I have replaced both with a MacBook Pro and an alu-iMac, hoping the problem would go away, but it hasn't. Both new machines were set up with the migration assistant, so I suppose whatever the bad was on the old ones is still there. Where should I start looking?

Considering that it reoccured, I would consider doing an archive and install. Since the problem was there and migration assistant was used, it'll probable continue. Delete the same preference file again before the reinstall, then immediately boot from the install disk. To bring yourself up to date quickest, use the 10.4.10 combo update.

WRT54G Keeps Resetting - Help!

Just bought router a couple of weeks ago, and it keeps resetting. First I lose internet connectivity, and when I bring up the Linksys Advisor, it goes into the initial setup like I've never done it. It worked fine up until a few days ago. Any idea what is going on?

don't really rely on the easy link advisor sometimes it's not accurate. do you frequently have power outtage in the area?sometimes it affects the settings of the router.also try to configure the router properly if not familiar on how to do that try to get in touch with the phone support

CS6 PhotoShop hanging when opening PDFs - help?

Hi all,
I'm IT support to a team of studio artists who are having some issues with our newly upgrade CS6 Premium suite (Mac OS 10.6 + Mac OS 10.8).
Situation: (Mac OS 10.6 problem) someone will be working on a 2GB network file, and tries to open a PDF to import elements into the current document. Machine has 12GB RAM (7 allocated to PS, 2 free, the rest used with OS/other apps).
After choosing the PDF file, the window will pop up and become 'stuck' in front of all other windows, all other programs. Activity Monitor describes PS as hung (red text) but Finder still recognises it as working (but will not show the program title in the menu bar). It is possible to CMD+TAB between programs, and the pallets recognise mouse-over actions but are unresponsive to click. Again, "Import" window is on top of all other windows, and can be moved but does not respond to mouse clicks.
Activity Monitor also shows intense disk activity (60-80MB/s) on local volumes. It appears not to be network activity though (while hanging, 50-150KB/s). RAM allocation doesn't change during this time.
If you can be patient enough, the system often recovers PS, but this can take a few minutes.
The extreme disk activity implies that PS is processing on the scratch disk, but what or why is it doing this, and is there any way to disable it. Would it have anything to do with Background Save or Autosave? Something to do with purging memory?
Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks,
James D.

Hey Chris or anyone else from Adobe - is there any chance we can get this looked at slightly more in-depth?
This issue is re-occurring across our four Mac Pro workstations of various ages and operating systems.
Why is Photoshop writing out the contents of the RAM when I open a pdf?
We're working with machines that have 8-16GB worth of RAM and having to write that out to the scratch disk every time you open a PDF is very unproductive use of our time.
It's nice and easy to blame everything else like fonts or drivers or operating system or graphics cards or RAM or Acts of God, but how about for a second we assume that Photoshop is the cause, look at how we'd test for it and ultimately get it resolved.
This is the sort of issue that the average consumer would probably just ignore or deal with, which could explain why you guys don't believe this to be a bug. Seems to be picking up a lot more attention on here.
Thanks,
James.

K7n2g keeps reseting help

Read that this board has cpu thermal protection. But at what temp? cpu 57C case37C xp2200.works fine for a while then poof!! It restarts like nothing wrong.I,m totaly updated from bios to xp home

Bridge preferences keep resetting. Please help!

This is SO frustrating! I just upgraded to CS4 and my Bridge preferences keep resetting back to factory defaults. I have reinstalled the entire CS4 and I have also restarted Bridge holding down the option key and still nothing. I have also repaired disk permissions upon suggestion from Adobe Support.
Does anyone have any tips on what to do?
Furthermore, also, in Camera Raw my settings don't take either. In previous versions of ACR all I had to do was click the option once and everything in ACR would come up the same in subsequent openings. For example...ACR pops up in a very small window, in CS3 you could click the "full screen" option and each time you opened ACR, it would open full screen. Now every time I open ACR, it opens small and I have to click the screen larger. Very tedious. Same with changing the colorspace under each image...previously I had set it to sRGB and it would stick, however, now with CS4 every time I change it, it reverts back to Adobe 1998. Ugh.
Can anyone help? I have been on the phone for hours with Adobe support and everyone seems to lead me on a wild goose chase with no results.
I am running Mac OS 10.5.8.
Thank you!

The easiest way I can think of is to use your original install disk for
OSX10.5 and choose the option to archive and install a new system.
The Archive and Install option makes a copy of your old library and creates
a fresh new one leaving all the other existing files intact.
However, to be sure first make a back up of all your important files from
your user account (including the Document, pictures, music movie etc
folders) if you not already have done so (something you should have... )
First of all use the Adobe uninstaller to uninstall you CS4 copy (it should
be in the utilities folder)
Then run the Archive and Install option from the install disk. You should
start up from this disk otherwise it won't work. When finished restart OSX
and use software update to get the latest version of OSX 10.5
Reinstall CS4 and try again.
Any ideas?
Thanks for your help.

I book G4 Keeps resetting itself. HELP!

HI!
My IBook G4 keeps resetting it self. I have not changed a folder name or anything. When i turn the computer off and turn it back on, it is all back to the "default" settings. I have to start each application new. Like mail. in the last hour I started "mail" 4 times and had to put all my information back in. I-tunes has to restart, but my music is still there, after it gets imported.\
Now my keychain is going crazy, too. My Safari lost my bookmarks, everything.
I can't afford to loos everything, so please help me. I looked up in the help topics, but all my folders seem to be Ok.
Thanks.

...if the hard drive was erased the install discs are the only way to resolve this that I am aware of.
As an alternative, you can buy a copy of the operating system and the iLife product, which is most of what was on the original install disks that didn't come with your system. One source for unopened Apple software is hardcoremac.com.
However, it sounds like you can log onto the system, yes? On the menu bar, towards the apple on the left, it says File. If you click on that can you also click on "new finder window"? If yes, what does it show you?

Ipod keeps resetting at language selection HELP!

My ipod keeps resetting at the language selection and i can't do anythink except recharge it. How can i get it to work again.

Welcome to the discussions Patrick,
It may or may not have said it on there but there is one number for apple support. It is 1-800-APL-CARE. You dial this number during buisness hours and follow the steps given. Since you just bought this (a video ipod right?) you have one year or 90 days of phone and tech support. As for turning the ipod on and off it is the play/pause button and the center button. Center to turn it on and play/pause to turn it off. It is confusing at first yes, but you should get the hang of it. The applecare representatives will/should take care of you.

Help! My centro keeps resetting..

My verizon centro keeps resetting when I access the webpro function and I am using the online feature. Any suggestions?
Post relates to:

WebPro was for sale at one time from the Palm Store, and was included with the Zire71/72 also...
I'm guessing the OP may just be guessing at the name of the program. Hard to believe this old web browser got installed on his Centro, unless a major upgrade mistake was made by the OP...

My Ipod just keeps resetting itself.HELP!!!!

My 60 GB ipod video just keeps resetting itself. I have tried to reset it and plug it into my computer, what should I do??
Windows Windows XP

Try the standard fixes:
- Reset. Nothing is lost
Force an app to close: Hold down the On/Off button for a few seconds until a red slider appears,
then hold down the Home button until the app quits.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod
If still problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

What happens if you press buttons?? What happens if you slide your hold bar on and off? What happens when you plug it into your computer? What happens when you plug it into the AC Adapter??

IPad - after software upgrade the APN settings keep resetting by themselves. There are multilple accounts of this happening. Please help.

Hello,
I have a problem with an iPad 2. After the software upgrade to iOS 5 the APN settings keep resetting all by themselves (I set the APN, I get out of the setting by pressing the back arrow on the top left of the screen, I get back in there and the APN setting is gone). Of course, the internet connection si not working. I've seen other people having the same problem on their iPads after the upgrade.
Does anyone have any idea what the problem could be?

I too am experiencing this issue - on an iPad 2 using a UK BT DATA plan SIM. This is not an issue with the SIM, as I have tried it in a different iPad and it works without any problems.
I have also tried all recent iOS updates, hoping it would overcome the issue - but no joy.
Can we have some assistance from the fine people at Apple please???
It is getting rather infuriating
