Fast PC yet still problems with memory optimisation on CS3

I have a Dell 690 with eight 3GHZ processors and 3 Gig of RAM.
I'm editing a half-hour documentary with lots of video audio and still files.
Often when I create a new title caption, I receive a warning that memory is low. And now it's freezing up all the time when I'm animating stills (particularly when I apply a heavy effect like Gaussian Blur).
Do I need more RAM? Or is Premiere CS3 just as lacking as the previous versions, when it comes to editing big projects?
ed

Two suggestions:
1) make sure that under the Preferences options, there's a setting somewhere that says something to the effect of optimize for Performance vs Memory. (By default, it's set to performance). Switch that to memory.
2) Consider using Vista 64. That will allow any 32 bit process to access up to 4 gigs of virtual address space instead of 3 gigs. This should help considerably... plus, you could throw more memory into the machine which would help if you're running multiple concurrent applications (case in point, if you're attempting to use Dynamic Link between AE & PPro).

Problems with Memory on upgrading

Problems with Memory. I Dide not hace space to upgrade. Now i do, but It still cancels for lack of space

Actually, your problem does not sound like memory, but hard drive space. By default, you lose 10% of your drive to the OS and formatting. To tell how much hard drive space you have go to:
>Finder
>At the bottom of finder in the gray bar it will tell you how much space you have available on your hard drive.
Your hard drive should be no more than 85% full! If it is, delete, get a larger hard drive, remove items to an external drive.
GarageBand only needs 1.2 MB of space.
In order to use GarageBand, some additional content is required. If you do not already have the content installed, it must be downloaded.
Make more disk space available by moving some of your files to a different disk (such as an external hard disk or a USB flash drive), or by deleting files you don't need and then emptying the Trash

Having a common yet unfounded problem with

Hello
Having a common yet unfounded problem with my trackpad, or is it?
First, The trackpad has always worked just fine on my iBook Dual USB 800 MHz, like most folks I use a mouse when I am on the laptop, so i trried to use the trackpad the other day and I noticed 2 things...
It wasnt functioning and the trackpad feature was missing from system prefs mouse and key board (running OS X10.4.11)
so I haven't used my trackpad in months, i try to test it and piff! nothing...
there is one final point, hours before i chose to tes tthis the book took a tumble on its right front corner, so naturally this could be a if not the contributing factor?
any ideas?

Did you unplug the mouse when you tried to use the trackpad? If not, I would suggest that you try that.
If the trackpad doesn't work when no mouse is plugged in, you may want to try resetting the PMU.
The PMU (Power Management Unit) controls trackpad function, so resetting it often helps when the trackpad isn't working (or isn't working right).
If the trackpad still doesn't work after resetting the PMU, chances are the fall may have something to do with the trackpad not working. If you're lucky, it may just be that its plug has jiggled loose from its connection. Detailed instructions on plugging it back in can be found in this comprehensive post by Michael Baker:

Good luck.

Strange problems with memory dimms(Banks) in imac 27in mid2010

Hello dear Apple community. I had a really strange problem with memory dimms(modules anyway)
I have one really good imac 27in with i7 but as you know after some years the lcd screen became yellowish and cloudy
So i decided to clean it as i have some knowledge and i did that to others lcd screens with success.
OK so after successfully cleaning and working like new ( i mean not the external screen with magnets but the lcd internally)i started it.
Before dismantling my memory was 16gb ( 4x4 dimms)
After starting it a strange problem arise without any reason! Memory reduced TO 8 GB!!!! memory banks on the right as we seeing it didnt worked at all
and it was not from dimms because i swapped them..!!!
So after a lot of thinking and asking tech guys to take a second opinion all the saying (including me that logic board failed for some strange reason.
Some days before i installed CCleaner and also Onyx because after a lot of installations and uninstallations my mac became a little sluggish..
I thought that some serious preferences files removed or some hardware settings deleted with Onyx ( is very good and powerful program that can fix the pc and also destroy it in a second) so i removed and reset all preferences. But nothing changed.. So i put a new hard drive and reinstall OXS to see if something can change.
After formating HD to appleHFS+ saw system profiler that still couldn't see all banks(16gb). I remove logic board and i put another processor i7 that i have as a back up and still nothing( some saying that only these 2 things must be faulty if memory banks not working , processor an logic board and sometimes reinsatlling OS can fix it as i mentioned before. But still nothing...
So from my nerves and after so much testings and no sleeping for 2 days as it was working i pulled off the memory modules from the right bank i put them again ( off course nothing changed) and i close it. After i restarted it like a miracle finally i saw that i have again 16gb in system profiler!!
Tech guys here please give me an explanation to this because i gooing crazy! What happened and after i pulled off the dimms while it was working the problem fixed?? It is not recomended at all this action. I forgot to mention that i did Apple hardware test and nothing found..
Sorry for long post.

Okay great news... My memory problems are solved and my Mac Mini is now running at 8 gigs of Ram. I tried the suggested DD3 1333 which the computer wouldn't even recognize.
So after visiting the Apple Store in the Fair Oaks VA shopping mall; they suggested that I try DDR3 8500 ram. I visited Micro Center in Vienna VA, and I purchased BGreg's Suggested Crucial Brand Ram. 10 minutes after I got home the Mac Mini booted on the 1st try with 8 gigs of Ram.
Some venting that Apple hopefully will read and mention to their resellers....
The people in the Apple section of MicroCenter in Vienna at first argued that the Mac Mini only supports 4 gigs. EVEN AFTER I SHOWED THEM THE SPECS on the Apple website. The clerk (who I am calling a clerk because by no means was he a "specialist") even suggested that the Apple site was wrong. On a later visit to MicroCenter to purchase the DDR3 8500, that the people at Apple recomended; Microcenter even suggested and argued that I needed DDR3 1333 and NOT DD3 8500. THIS WAS AFTER I TOLD THEM THAT Mac Mini WOULD NOT RECOGNIZE the DD3 1333 Dimms. Working in retail myself I don't go along with the concept that the customer is always right, however in this instance clearly I was.
I should point out that some of the staff in Microcenter really do try hard, however like with any business it only takes a few "know it all" bad examples to turn customers off.
Curious post thought; I wasted about $75 in gas driving to and from Microcenter because of their bad advice.

After having yet another problem with my MacBook Pro and having to wipe the drive, I am now unable to sync my iPhones etc without erasing all the music on them. Is there a way around this? I have no other library!

After having yet another problem with my MacBook Pro and having to wipe the drive, I am now unable to sync my iPhones etc without erasing all the music on them. Is there a way around this? I have no other library!
iTunes is a mess! It couldn't find it's own libraries and I was forced to create a new one. Now I don't know where my music is or if any's missing.

It's not crap at all.
It's not that simple. For example, I've 3500 songs on my MacBook but don't want them all on my phone, so I have to manually select each song again???
There has to be a solution.
Why not simply make a playlist with the songs you want on the iPhone?
and maintain a current backup of your computer.

Still problems with ID changing in Teaming 2.1?

Hi,
They are still problems with changing the ID from user in the eDIR when they are
will synchronized with the Teaming system?
In the past it was a very bad thing if the user name (ID) was a shortened form the
name of the user e.g. ssmith for Sarah Smith.
When "our" Sarah has married and her new name was e.g. Sarah Stone, new user ID is
sstone, the Teaming system can't "realize" that ssmith and sstone are the same user.
Is this problem fixed in the version 2.1?
THX
Andre

Hi,
A opened a request by Novell and get the answer that all is still the same since version 1.x.
Maybe this behavior will change in the version 4.x.
It's really sad that Teaming can't handle changed IDs.... really sad....
Than we have two ways... first, we change all our IDs to IDs with digits like 1234 or the second way... we use
SharePoint.... really sad.....
I'm wonder me that we are the only firm with such problem....

Still problems with Apple id and emails after move to iCloud

Hi,
After move from MobileMe to iCloud, there are still problems with apple id's and emails.
I'm trying to delete a mail (email1) from one apple id, but nothing happens?
And when i'm trying to add a email (email2), that i Know isn't linked to another apple id, i get the message that it is already in use with another apple id?
It's a problem when you use these emails with facetime, imessage etc ...

My iPhone 5 and 4 both are having no trouble connecting to the Apple store, but my iPad (4th Gen) cannot either connect to Apple store, nor stream music using iTunes Radio. Keeps asking for my Apple ID and password. When I put it in, it says that I cannot connect. If I put it in wrong, it tells me its wrong. Tried changing my password on my desktop PC. The iPhones handled change and continued to connect, but iPad is unable to connect still.
Any solutions would be appreciated.

Anyone else having a Problem with Leopard and Photoshop CS3?

I'm using CS3 with Leopard 10.5.4 at work and there are some very aggravating anomalies, that I'd like to nail down to a cause. Most frequently, when switching from apps to P'Shop, the menu bar stays for the previous app, i.e. when going from Finder to P'shop, the menu bar still says Finder and has Finder options. Changing from Lightwave to P'Shop, the menu bar remains Lightwave.
Occasionally, an Adobe app - P'Shop or InDesign - will simply disappear and not come back. The icon in the dock shows it as active, but no amount of clicking, Command-Tabbing will reveal the app and I have to Force Quit, losing unsaved changes.
I have a feeling it's Leopard, since, I've used CS3 on Tiger and CS4 on Tiger and never had a problem.
I'm wondering if upgrading to the latest Leopard would make much of a difference.
Has anyone come across this and found any kind of answers?
Thanks for any suggestions.
-Vincent

> Just because it doesn't happen to Phil (who may not use all of the same features of the Suite that others do anyway) does NOT mean that these problems are not real and are not mere PEBCAK.
Right. If someone is having a problem associated with Tiger, it's PEBAK. If Leopard is involved, it's automatically because of Leopard. Apparently, with Apple's latest OS, trouble shooting problems are no longer necessary - just blame it on Leopard and call it a day.
b FUD
I find the dynamics here really interesting. This thread would have been very different if Vincent had posted with problems involving Tiger. Would have gone something like this:
After admonishing him for not providing more information about his setup by posting the obnoxious big blue link on how to ask questions (ahem - we know NOTHING about his machine or configuration, such as which machine, how much RAM, scratch disk or attached peripherals), there'd be all kinds of trouble shooting advice given - "try a new user", "repair permissions", "run DiskWarrior, and on and on ...
But no, since he mentions Leopard, none of that is apparently necessary and the completely, utterly
b irresponsible
advice is given ... "that's just the way Leopard is".
Those are some serious problems he's reporting that have nothing to do with Leopard. Something is obviously hosed!
As for discounting my experience because I don't use every app in the suite as extensively as I do Photoshop, I'm FAR more qualified to discuss Leopard and CS issues than Ann or Neil who do not use Leopard at all (and have never used it as far as I know.)
"Others have problems with it", is their battle cry but it's extremely weak. Do I really need to remind you all that these forum are ALWAYS filled with people who have problems, regardless of version or OS? You act as if this forum was a ghost town when Tiger and CS3 were current!
Gee, Ann ... people are STILL reporting problems with 10.5 and CS3? How shocking! Guess what - people are STILL reporting problems with 10.4 and CS3 too! Let me make a prediction - people will have problems with 10.8 and CS9!
Vincent-
> I don't really deal with fonts anyway ...
Yes. You do. Even if you never type a single line of text, every application uses fonts to create menus and other GUI items. If one of those fonts are bad, it can create all kinds of problems, including the very problems you mention.
The fact that you don't seem aware of this and you're still using 10.5.4 leads me to believe you're not familiar with the basic practices of maintaining a healthy system. Again, how did you install Leopard on that machine?
Look, if you're simply trying to justify using CS4, go right ahead. It's a worthwhile upgrade in it's own right. However, if you install it on that machine in it's current state, CS4 will NOT fix your problems because you do NOT have a healthy system.
You asked for experiences with Leopard - I can launch every application in both CS3 and CS4 suites
i simultaneously,
and STILL not have your issues. I haven't experienced anything like your CS3 problems in Leopard - on both a 2006 Mac Pro and a 2008 Macbook.
If you'd like help to try and figure out the real problem, I'm more than happy to help. If not, Adobe will gladly take your money ...

Another Problem With Memory..

Ok, so recently I just posted that I had a problem with mem... here is another. I just checked how much memory I'm using and it says I'm using 989 out of 1 gb.. is that normal? It was 504 about an hour ago and all I have open are Adium and Safari..

The two important questions are 1) how much is inactive and 2) how many page outs are you showing in virtual memory. In fact, the second question is the one to key on. The number of page outs will indicate how often your computer has tried to access more memory than it has and as therefore been forced to copy RAM contents to the drive so it could perform the task it was asked to do. This is when your computer is being slowly choked to death.
Now don't just open the Activity Monitor, look at the Page ins and Page outs and panic because you have 30,000 page outs. Keep in mind that's an accumulative number and if your Mac hasn't been restarted for 90 days, well that number may not be relevant at all. So restart the computer, and use it as you normally do. Then check the status of Page Outs at 30 minute intervals. The faster the Page Outs mount up with your normal usage the more you'll benefit from an upgrade.

Problem with memory usage and CPU usage

Hello,
i have a problem with the memory usage and cpu usage in my project!
My application must run for more than 24 hrs. The problem is that the longer it runs the bigger is the memory and cpu usage!
It starts with ~15% CPU usage and ~70 MBytes memory usage. After ~ 24hrs the CPU usage is ~60% and the memory usage is ~170 MBytes!
After 3 days the CPU usage is almost about 70% and the memory usage is about 360 MBytes!
What can I do to reduce this huge recource usage?
Thank you!

Hi Pahe,
   I think the issue is memory usage, since CPU usage can increase due to greater memory requirements.
   Anyway, it's difficult to debug without seeing your code, can you post it (possibly for LV 7.1 compatibility)? Or just post a JPEG of the piece of code that can give problems...
   I guess you're appending data to an array instead of replace data elements, but I can't be sure...
   Have a nice day!

Is this yet another problem with 7.5 or is it just me . . .

Upgrade seemed to be fine, at first . . . now I keep getting distortion on songs. It seems to be quite random and just because a song has been distorted when I've listened to it once doesn't mean it will be when I listen to it again! It's driving me insane. Is this yet another bug or have I done something wrong (apart from upgrading to 7.5).

Hi Emlou,
If you have a Windows based operating system such as XP -
It seems to me that you are suffering what I am having the same problem with - the program takes up to much of your computer's processing usage. If you go into your task manager and watch performance as ITunes runs - you will see how much of the total computer usage it is taking at any given moment - that's why your songs are distorted, slowing, garbled, etc - the usage on mine spikes from 11% - 93% AT ANY GIVEN MINUTE! I have no idea why, but I have found that by going to your "Control Panel" and clicking on Quicktime you can adjust audio output to help. Click the audio tab, click Safe Mode Wavout only (checkbox) / Then adjust the "Rate" to 96kHz / Then adjust the "Size" to 16 bit. Close that and shut down and restart Itunes - it might help a little for you.
Maybe someone out there can help us find out why we are suffering with all the CPU usage trouble and how to adjust that spiking.
Thanks!
Paul

Still problems with uploading articles in folio builder

Hello,
Read much information on this forum but i still don't have a solution for my problem. And here is my problem.
I had a course how to create a digital publication. So went back to work and try to do the same as what i did at the course.
Installed InDesign CS5.5 and the last folio producer tools en folio panel. Than I create a folio via the folio panel en voila it was created. So far so good.
Than I try to add an article to this newly created folio but for some reason I can't get it in the folio and I got this message
An error has occured while updating article layouts.The InDesign file for the layout cannot be found. (Than in Dutch because I have a Dutch version)
So what I already tried is the following:
- use another Adobe-ID to log in the folio panel (no succes)
- uninstalled the publishing parts en reinstalled again the newest parts (no succes)
- create article via import (also no succes)
- create a local folio and than add a article (no succes)
- Also locate the InDesign file on another location (no succes)
When i create the article the spinner keeps on turning. When I than login to the digitalpublishing.adobe.com with the same adobe-id I see the article with a red frame around it. Which says "Corrupt layout"
Than I send the InDesign file of an article to someone else and he can upload this file without any problems. And I am sure I have all rights/permissions which I should have.
Is it possible that you can have problems with uploading articles because of network settings or combinations with other software?
Has somebody a solution for this really frustrating problem?

Hi pbremmer!
Are you using Mac och PC?

Problem with memory module

The problem with upgrade memory module.
Available:
Cisco 2951 router with the default memory module 512Mb.
Additionally purchased:
Memory Module MEM-2951-1GB (SG572288FG8P6ILMH4)
Problem Description:
When you start seeing a hardware router modules, after loading the ROMMON
reading failure IOS image
The first module is worth the default 512M, 1G second unit acquired
The permutation modules as well as single use module 1G situation has not changed.
Work whether the module supplier sold me?

It shouldn't cost you a fortune, John. I usually find Apple re-sellers very obliging on matters like this. Where did you buy your memory from? If it was Apple retail they may help and explain about the residue at the same time.
It's not unusual to meet difficulties with the fitting of memory but the residue is something I haven't met before.
