Focused slow on Windows 7

Hello,
some of the users of Focused are experiencing lags when typing.
The lag grows as the length of the text increases.
I verified the same behavior on Windows 7 32 bits (Adobe Air 1.5.3.9130)
It is a simple application, working correctly on win xp, vista.
Any idea?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Wleblanc,
“WebDAV is VERY slow on Windows 7 only. When using WebDAV on Windows 8 or using the web portal (browser), file uploads are very fast.”
Do you mean only the uploading operation in WebDAV of Windows 7 is slow or the whole WebDav performance is slow ?
Please check this service ”Webclient” from the service control .
I noticed that the process of creating a WebDAV connection is a little different in Windows 7 and Windows 8 .Someone indeed informed the information that this service will affect the WebDAV performance.
Here are links for reference:
Using Windows, how do I use WebDAV to upload files to my Oncourse Resources or Drop Box?(Pay attention to the creating process)

Access 2007 very slow on Windows 7

Access 2007 is running very slowly in on two new Windows 7 clients. By slow, I mean the response time within Access - moving from screen to screen is dreadfully slow, taking 30+ seconds on Windows 7 to do what a computer with Windows XP will do in
1 second.
I cannot find any information that addresses the issue.
We have been running Windows XP SP3 clients successfully for almost a year. The speed is virtually instantaneous. The Access file is hosted on a file server, Windows Server 2003, with SQL Server Express 2008. Nothing has changed on the
server. The Windows XP clients previously and currently experience no problems.
The first of 2 new computers were deployed with Windows 7, with OS pre-loaded from Dell. Microsoft update was run to update OS and Access. Once discovered that Access was running brutally slow, I used the other new PC to test. Windows 7
freshly installed. Office 2007 freshly installed. Tested - still slow. Ran Windows Update, then re-tested. Still slow.
The issue reminds me of the slowness experienced when we were developing the Access database on my laptop which was running Vista. So, it runs fine on XP, but not on Vista or 7.
I'm convinced the problem is a conflict with Windows 7 on the client, but cannot pinpoint it. I've searched these forums and Google for answers, but have not found any information that has specifically addressed this issue. Can anyone offer assistance?

After reading numerous forums , I was able to resolve
the following issues (Screens Freezing, Screens Lag/Flickers, combo/list boxes freezing whilst searching for data) by carrying out the following:
Creating a brand new copy of the MS Access database in MS Access 2007/2010 using the Windows 7 image
Importing the database objects (tables queries, forms, reports, macros and modules) into MS Access 2007 /2010 d/b within the Windows 7 image.
Setting the
MaxBufferSize of 16384 (Decimal), HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE (regedit) onto various PCs as recommended by various forums.
Making sure that the relevant reference libraries have been selected for MS Access 2007. This should automatically set throughout the default
installation as demonstrated below:
Visual Basic For Applications
Microsoft Access 12.0 Object Library
OLE Automation
Microsoft DAO 3.6 Object Library
Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.5 Library
Also by typing in the following words into Google, provided me with some solutions, however the instructions above allowed me to rectify the issues
experienced above.

Read and follow the Bootcamp Installation instructions that you were offered to view when you ran Bootcamp Assistant.
Run Bootcamp Assistant again and select the option to download the Bootcamp Support software. Follow the instructions. Then boot into Windows and install the Windows Support software you downloaded and saved.

Mac OS internet 5x slower than Windows 7 on BootCamp

Alright, here is my problem...
My one and only computer is a mid 2010 iMac... I recently moved to a new place. Prior to me moving I was stuck with an awful 3Mbps download speed. (You can tell how much I hated it by looking at my username) Now that I moved, I am able to get much faster internet. So, I got a plan that offers up to 50Mbps download speeds (Xfinity Blast cable internet). I didn't want to rent my ISP's modem/router, so I purchased my own. I got a Motorola sbg6580. As soon as I got everything hooked up, it seemed perfect. I used speedtest.net to see what I was getting. I first tested on Windows 7. To my surprise, I was getting around 70Mbps. I then restarted my iMac into the Mac OS to do some speed tests. On the Mac OS, I was getting around 50-60Mbps. A bit slower than Windows 7, but still very good. The next day I decided to do a "real world" test. I downloaded a 1 Gigabyte file just to see how fast it was. Now, if I was getting 50Mbps the file should have taken just under 3 minutes to download. Instead, it took around 7 minutes. I figured it was maybe just the website I was downloading from. (the file I was downloading was the Cry Enginge SDK - http://www.crydev.net/ ) I did some research and discovered the website testmy.net - I am not sure if this is completely reliable or not, but every test I do on testmy.net I get around 10Mbps. At first I thought it was my ISP ripping me off, then I decided to do a testmy.net test on Windows 7 via BootCamp. (please note that on both Mac OSX and Windows 7 I did multiple tests over the coarse of multiple days) On Windows, I could instantly tell that the test was going much faster. The results for testmy.net on Windows 7 were 50-60Mbps. I did not completely trust the website, so I downloaded the same Cryengine SDK on Windows. It took around 3 minutes, just as it should have. I researched a bunch online trying to find info on this problem. I tried many "solutions" but none of them changed anything. (these include but are not limited to: Tried different DNS servers, Disabled ipv6, disabled sbg6580 firewall, disabled mac osx firewall, tried changing the wireless channel, and reset sbg6580. I came to the conclusion that it was the sbg6580. I thought that maybe an airport express would give me better results. So, today I bought an Airport express. With the sbg6580, I was able to disable the router features so it was just a modem. I was then able to set up the Airport express as my router. It fixed nothing. I am still getting the same results, Windows is still getting anywhere from 50-60Mbps while Mac OSX is getting around 10Mbps. I am out of ideas, if anyone could please help me that would be great. Also, if you need to know anything else please let me know. I may have missed something...
A quick note:
At my old house I had my iMac hooked up to a surge protector. For maximum internet performance, my iMac was connected to my router with an ethernet cable. During a bad storm one day, a lightning bolt either hit my house or very close to it. Ever since, my ethernet port has not worked. I have tried multiple eithernet cables as well as multiple routers and networks. I do not have the money for apple to completely replace my logic board. - So anyway, I am unable to test the performace with an eithernet cable.
Extra information:
My sbg6580 as well as my Airport extreme are both sitting on the same desk as my iMac, so it is obviously not a signal problem.
I also own both a iPod touch 5th gen and a iPad 2nd gen. I am getting around 20-30Mbps on both of them. I am not sure what would be a "good speed" on either of these, but I figured that was pretty good for a tablet and ipod.
The upload speeds on both windows 7 and Mac OSX are around the same 5-10Mbps.
I am using Google Chrome on both Windows 7 and Mac OSX but, I have also tried Firefox and Safari.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

"Move focus to next window" shortcut in full screen mode

Does anyone know how to use the "Move focus to next window" sortcut when in "full screen" mode?
When using a smaller screen (Macbook Air) full screen mode is a nice idea but I keep turning it off becauase the normal shortcut doesn't work.
Any pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated.
Cheers

I can't duplicate your problem with my setup. Try deleting the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder and see if that will help. Often a damaged or corrupted pref file will cause some very unusual performance issues with iPhoto.
Also you can try rebuilding the library while selecting just the option to rebuild the database.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Is ORACLE slower on Windows then on Linux ?

Hi,
I'm suppose to choose the platform for Oracle .... Linux or Windows 2008 Server ...
Ones we've installed Oracle on Windows 2003 Server and it was really slower like 200-300% ..... we did simple default install
Does anyone know if this is a fact that Oracle will run slower on Windows platform then on any other ? Any experiance with that ? If we are talking about 5-10% then this is ok and I'll stick with windows ...
Cause I know how to deal with windows much more then how to deal with Linux admin, install and other stuff ...
Thank you...

Also, I've seen high demand screensavers (fractals) clobber Oracle performance . . .
Oracle on Windows uses a thread modelThat's actually one of the few "positives" about running Oracle on Windows . . .
rather than providing a performance comparison between Linux and Windows.Fine, try here:
www.dba-oracle.com/oracle_tips_linux_oracle.htm
"Roby Sherman performed an exhaustive study of the speed of Oracle on Linux and Microsoft Windows using identical hardware. Sherman currently works for Qwest Communications in the data technologies group of IT architecture and transversal services. He is a recognized expert in designing, delivering, tuning, and troubleshooting n-tier systems and technology architecture components of various size and complexity based on Oracle RDBMS technology.
Sherman concludes that Linux was over 30% faster:
"From perspective of performance, RedHat Linux 7.2 demonstrated an average performance advantage of 38.4 percent higher RDBMS throughput than a similarly configured Windows 2000 Server in a variety of operational scenarios." Sherman also notes: "Another point of contention was Window's lack of consistency between many database administrative functions (e.g., automated startup, shutdown, service creation, scripting) compared to what DBAs are already used to in many mainstream UNIX environments (e.g., Solaris and HP-UX)."
Mr. Burleson's comments seem to be out of line. No, I'm right on the money.
*I've seen enough companies get burned by Windows (unplanned outages, data corruption) to speak with confidence.*
Bottom line, it's malfeasence to recommend any OS platform for a production database application that has an unsavory history.
It does not take a genius to figure out that an OS with this kind of history should not be used with any data that you care about:
- "blue screen of death"
- legandary security vulnerabilities
- memory leaks you could drive a truck through
- Patching weekly
- The world's most incompetant tech support
I'm not alone in this opinion:

Good point on the screen saver.
Comparing Windows 2000, released in March 2000, with Red Hat 7.2 which was released in ... sorry, forgot the date, but I put in a couple servers running that release of Linux into service in 2001. I was kind of hoping that you would have an article which pits Windows 3.1 against the original Linux release. :-)
You might be happy to know that things have changed significantly since Windows 3.1, and also significantly since Windows 2000. There were many improvements in Windows 2003 over Windows 2000 (I happened to read a couple large books on the subject of Windows 2003 Server a couple years ago). This page contains a couple links that you may want to browse:

Regarding blue screen of death, those are rather rare with versions of Windows since the release of Windows 2000. The last blue screen that I saw on a server happened when an ECC memory module started experiencing multiple hardware bit errors which could not be corrected by the ECC memory logic. The server hardware forced the blue screen to prevent data corruption. The previous blue screen? A Windows NT 4.0 Server (circa 1996) when a new RAID controller was added to the server.
Regarding legandary security vulnerabilities, well I don't think that it quite qualifies as legendary. However, given the wide usage of Windows (particularly by people just starting to learn to use computers), there will very definitely be more security issues to contend with - Windows often offers a larger attack surface than other operating systems. Yes, there have been many security problems over the years.
Regarding memory leaks you could drive a truck through, I have to say that in a server environment I have not experienced that problem. On a desktop environment, I would say that it is typically the fault of poorly written applications which cause the memory leaks. Windows will often clean up after the poorly written applications when they are closed.
Regarding patching weekly, yes there are typically frequent security and bug fixes released for the Windows platform, but I suggest that if someone is patching weekly on a server, there is probably a larger problem to be addressed.
Regarding the world's most incompetant tech support, I am not sure that I follow your logic:

Very slow scrolling window thumbnails clips

Very slow scrolling windows with thumbnail clips. The more files in the event, the worse it gets. It is very frustrating. Is in others it is the same? I have MacOookPro i7 early 2011, thunderbolt drives RAID0, 16GB memory, FCPX 10.0.7. After the hardware is decent.
Give some feedback, thank you.
P.S. I might add that this disadvantage are found from version 10.0.0.

You might want to look at either booting from your install dvd (insert, restart and hold 'C' down) and running disk repair from Utilities. Alternatively, and I always suggest any Mac user should have at least one, a 3rd party disk utility like DiskWarrior (there are others) is extremely useful.

AWT and focusing on different windows

Hey guys.
I have a problem, I'm trying to set the focus a window but can't.
I have two windows A and B.
I also have a Events being picked up set on window A.
So the set of events are detailed as follows.
Window A display's and responds to events.
When a particular event occurs it loads up a new window (WindowB) and focus is given to that window.Wasn't a problem until we realised that there was a delay between Window A being displayed and Window B being displayed, enough to cause a problem.
So the code was changed like follows.
WindowB.pack();
WindowB.setVisible(true);
WindowA.setVisible(false);When it was changed to the above, we lost the ability to pick up keyboard events, as WindowA was still the window with focus.
I've had a look at the KeyboardFocusManager where it seems that focus can be change between components.
However is also states for method setGlobalFocusWindow() that it can only be set if it is in the same context.
Which it is not.
Is it possible to set focus to the window before the window has been set visible? Is KeyboardManager the right class to look at?
Sorry about the lack of code(It's spread in many directions and is sensitive)
Thanks for any help in advance

Vivado 2015.2 , 'focus' changes in windows.

may be some one else can check this for us.
Running vivado 2015.2 on windows 7 pro 64 bit.
Also running notepad++ .
Vivado does lots of thigns in the back ground, including compiling IP blocks.
It seems when vivado finishes a section of IP, it pops up a little window bottom right to say done etc.
Well, I have been running vivado on a big job, and I have been editing some big data files with Notepad++ using macro's at the same time whilst waiting for vivado.
It seems that when vivado pops up the message, focus of the window jumps from notepad++ to the vivado window,
which rather upsets the notepad macro as it has lost focus.
Dont know if this is a notepad problem or vivado should not do this, and its rather anoying,
and wonder if anyone else has any thoughts on where I should ask ?
just wondered , I now know not to run vivado whilst using macro's.

Let me check this and get back to you

Changing the first item being focused in a window

Hello fellow programmers. I'm developing an application that contains a number of radio buttons as well as a PLAY and STOP button. I would like the PLAY button to be focused whenever the window is opened. I was able to get this done by calling the requestFocusInWindow() method after the initComponents() method in my form class. I also had to call the requestFocusInWindow() method in the STOP button's ActionPerformed method. I noticed for a split second, another button was getting the focus whenever the STOP button was pressed (until the requestFocusInWindow()) was called).
I've tried adding the requestFocusInWindow() method in just about every location in the PLAY button's code with no success. The only thing that works is what I described. Is there a better way of accomplishing this?
Thanks in advance.

You'll need a custom focus traversal policy, see [the tutorial|http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/misc/focus.html#customFocusTraversal].

Focus disappears from window

Hi
I have tried to find the solution for this problem, with no
luck.
I have to navigate my menu with arrows alone, so i need to
have focus on my application when my html-window is launched.
at the moment im doing this:
username.focusManager.showFocus();
username.setfocus();
it results in that i can see the focus, but i cant navigate
unless i click on the window with the mouse.
PLEASE help me

Thank you for the suggestions so far, Tom and Tracy; however, I don't think I have explained myself clearly enough.
The selected track isn't playing. This 'problem' occurs when I'm browsing through the library. If I find a track browsing through the library sorted by song titles ['Name'], select that track [not play it], but then decide that I want to see which other songs are on that album, I click 'Album' to resort the library and my selected track 'loses focus' from the window [i.e. it isn't there in front of me, on the Library screen]. I have to scroll all the way through my library to find the track [which is still selected, just not in view].
So, is there a way for iTunes to show the selected track in the Library window after you have sorted by a different criteria.
I could show you this simply in 2 seconds. Writing about it, however, is a different matter entirely!
Thank you again...
