Experiencing very slow text and image editing. How can i speed up this laggy-ness??
Brochure template I created myself is responding terribly to editing and manipulation. I'm thinking it could have been a problem with the amount of layers I added on PS elements 12, but I compressed the file and I'm still was having this extremely slow response. I went through the re-installation process and troubleshooting with updates and whatnot but they proved to be unsuccessful.

All other Adobe products have been running just perfectly until Acrobat Pro
I have worked with Acrobat 8 before and I never experienced these same problems
Any tips to help my productivity increase tenfold?
Thanks in advance!

So what OS and what version of Acrobat? There may be an issue in the combination.

I edit content on www.fomh.org. Until recently, I could sign in as administrator, click "edit" in the editable area of a web page, and proceed to update text and images. I have been using Firefox to do this for several years. Now when I attempt to do this, I see all the html code in the editable area instead of the text and images.
I am using Mac OS 10.6.8What is the content of that window?
Can you attach a screenshot?

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

FlasCC compiled swc library is very slow on first function call - how can I speed it up?
Hi everyone,
I have a C++ library that fits a mesh onto images of faces, now compiled into an swc.
I have just exposed one function from the library, that operates on a BitmapData and returns a Vector of Points indicating various parts of the face.
The problem is that the first call to the library (to process the first image) seems to take about 10 seconds. After that repeated calls take a fraction of a second.
Is there any way I can improve the performance on the first call, by initialising my library class in an init method or something? In the target application most users will only call the library once, so I need to improve this.
UPDATE: Profiling in Flash Builder, the [verify] action (which I understand is JIT bytecode verification) takes 10.1 seconds. The other main culprits are [avm1] (1.7s) and global$init.global$init (2.0s).
Can this be normal behaviour that JIT verification takes 10 seconds? Or can I speed it up? The source C++ code is probably 100,000 lines because it includes several modules from OpenCV, however so does Alex Mac's OpenCV demo and it doesn't take this long.
Below is the code for my library wrapper. Very grateful for any help!
#include <AS3/AS3.h>
#include <AS3/AS3++.h>
#include <Flash++.h>
#include "FlashCLM.h"
using namespace AS3::local;
// First we mark the function declaration with a GCC attribute specifying the
// AS3 signature we want it to have in the generated SWC. The function will
// be located in the com.FrameFish namespace.

annotate("as3import:flash.utils.ByteArray"),

void fitCLM(){
AS3_Trace("fitCLM starting");
// Copy pixels to C ram

"var imgPtr:int = CModule.malloc(ba.length);\n"
"ba.position = 0;\n"
"CModule.writeBytes(imgPtr, ba.length, ba);\n"
uint8_t* pixels = 0;
AS3_GetScalarFromVar(pixels, imgPtr);
// Get the width and height of image
inline_as3(
"var w:int = img.width;\n"
"var h:int = img.height;\n"
int width, height;
AS3_GetScalarFromVar(width, w);
AS3_GetScalarFromVar(height, h);
// Fit CLM
ff::FlashCLM clm;
int shapeSize = 58*2; // Size of the imm_face_db markup
int* shapeBuffer = new int[shapeSize];
int result;
clm.fit(pixels, width, height, shapeBuffer, &shapeSize, &result);
// Copy shape to as3 shape vector
if (result == ff::FlashCLM::FOUND){
for (int i=1; i<shapeSize; i+=2){

"var y:Number = %1;\n"
"var p:Point = new Point(x,y);\n"
"shape.push(p);\n"
: : "r"(shapeBuffer[i-1]), "r"(shapeBuffer[i])
// Clean up C memory
inline_as3(
"CModule.free(imgPtr);\n"
delete shapeBuffer;
// return the result (using an AS3 return rather than a C/C++ return)
AS3_Return(result);
int main(){
// We still need a main function for the SWC. this function must be called
// so that all the static init code is executed before any library functions
// are used.
// The main function for a library must throw an exception so that it does
// not return normally. Returning normally would cause the static
// destructors to be executed leaving the library in an unuseable state.
AS3_GoAsync();I never did get to the bottom of it. I got this response from Alex Mac:
It's hard to give good advice at the C++ level because the problem is more
of a code generation issue. When a function ends up requiring too many
registers to be live at once the resulting AS3 code can in some cases cause
the verifier to take a long time to run. Exception handling and
setjmp/longjmp can contribute to this, but so can things beyond your
control when LLVM inlines too much into a single function and ends up
generating unreasonable code...
In the end I moved most of my C++ code out of flash and on to a server. To
me flascc was a nice idea but didn't live up to the hype -
My new Macbook pro is running very slow especially with photoshop. How can I speed it up?
Hi there,
I just bought my Macbook Pro two weeks ago specifiacally to use Photoshop CS and Lightroom together. It worked fine for the first few days but
has slowed down considerably since then. I live in Taiwan which makes it difficult to go to a store to have it finxed due to the language barrier
so online help would be fantastic! If the problem continues would it be possible to exchange it for an Air (if that's a wise choice?)
I look forward to a quick reply!
Thank you
CandiceHi Clinton,
Thanks for that super quick reply!!
I wasn't expecting this to happen with my new computer! However photoshop and lightroom are running ridulously slowly, even while scrolling through pictures the beachball appears!
Ill give you some information that may help you understand this problem better.

I am experiencing very slow import and backing up issues.
I am experiencing very slow import and backing up catalog on exiting Lightroom. This is a very recent issue. I use RAW files.
The type of files you are importing will have an effect on the speed of the import process. Larger files, like raw sensor files, are normally much larger than JPG files.
But if this is something new, the slowness, and you are using the same camera with the same size files as previously then it's not just the file size.
What type of computer and what operating system are you using. -

This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to gather information about the state of your computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it on this page. However, you should be cautious about running a program at the instance of a stranger on a public message board. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them.
Here's a summary of what you need to do: Copy a line of text from this web page into the window of another application. Wait about a minute. Then paste some other text, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. Details follow.
You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in your browser, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign ($) or a percent sign (%). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for your password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator rights.
The test may take up to a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. There is no indication of progress until it's done. Wait for the line "[Process completed]" to appear in the Terminal window. If you don't see that line within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report your results. No harm will be done.
When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." That's because the forum software falsely identifies something in the post as a violation of the terms of use. If that happens, please post the results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

I have Creative Suite 5 Design Premium (teacher and student edition), how can i upgrade to cs6 and how much is it. I want to use it forAdobe Creative Suite 6 Design & Web Premium Digital Classroom Book ? I already bought the book thinking it was for Creative Suite 5 not 6 .I don't know where to get it any where else if anyone would be willing to help me out I would really Appreciate it alot. I would just return the book but Its past the return date. I bought the book at Barnes & Noble . I thought the Software would be included but I was wrong.
Thank you for any help you can give me ~
angelmia08If you are eligible for a new copy of the Teacher and Student edition, that is the way to go. It is generally cheaper to get new teacher/student versions than upgrade to a commercial version. However, with the Creative Cloud now available, I do not know if the CS 6 teacher/student versions are still available.

I just created a slideshow dvd in imovie, and when I hit finalize it said that it would take 7 hours to finalize. I've only had my macbook pro for 6 months, and this is the first imovie I've done...is this normal? If not how can I speed up this process? Thanks in advance for all of your help!
Hi
Time needed can depend on several things.
• less than 5 GB free space on Start-up (Mac OS) hard disk = Redicolous long times AND a DVD that most probably will not work OK
Medicine - I never go under 25GB free space
• Use of strange file formats into iDVD - can force it to de-code first then re-encode - this can take long long times
I use
Video - StreamingDV as from miniDV tape Cameras - or QuickTime Movies Converted to StreamingDV
Audio - .aiff 16-bit 48 kHz - (no .mp3, .wma etc)
• Use of old Mac - My G4 600MHz took about 24 hour per hour movie. my dG5 - about 2 hours per hour (I use Pro Quality encoding)
• Pro Quality encoding - takes about x2 to process a movie

Flash CS6 cant open play SWF files without importing and destroying them, how can I get around this?
Flash CS6 can't open play SWF files without importing and destroying them, how can I get around this?
I'm just trying to preview an swf file in flash like I have with all previous versions.What if my SWF loads external content from an online server?
Not only does the current flash player prohibit such activity, it doesn't even pop open an error anymore saying there was an error connecting to an online source.
Normally, I would simply drag the SWF into Flash and all connections would go through. I could see traces, errors, and experience no issues.
Now I can't even do that. So what then? You have crippled a fundamental use of the program, but THANK GOD we have that deco brush that nobody asked for.
And for the record, the nature of my work benefits from not necessarily allowing the Flash Player to connect to online content. The error it pops up? That's simply another method of error checking that I require. Updating the Flash Player options is not an option.
Why would you even remove this key feature from Flash anyways? It's been there for years ... has the ratio of people importing SWFs (a rather useless gesture in an increasing OOP world) really outweighed the people using Flash as a testing environment that much? -
When making a photo book, my iPhoto freezes during uploading the book to the storey. I have attempted this 4 times now and I don't know what to do! I know the file size is massive due quantity of large image files, but I don't want to reduce the image file size and compromise quality in the book. How can I get past this?
My macbook air is os x 10.9, using iPhoto 11 9.5 (902.7).Try Old Toad's solution here: See Re: iphoto : upload impossible to print a book
Try to boot into Safe Mode and order this way, or sign into a different user account and try to order as a different user.

I am unable to import all photos to IPhoto on computer. At a certain photo the following message appears: IPhoto cannot import your photos
because there was a problem downloading an image. How can I circumvent this particular image and import all other photos?I'm having the same issue. i have imported everything but the offending photo from my iPhone. problem is, with over 5000 pics, i have no idea how to find THAT ONE pic that won't import (bc I just get a greyed out pic image - with no data in iPhoto)
any idea how to get "date taken" info of THAT ONE pic out of iPhoto (or any metadata) so I don't have to search 3 years of pictures?
