Freezes when sending files

Hello! My Skype recently updated to 7.0.102 and now every time I start sending files to any of my contacts, Skype basically freezes. Sometimes I can scroll in the chat but it takes forever. It does not necessarily crash, as whoever I'm sending the file to does recieve it and when it's done Skype un-freezes. I've tried logging in and out, as well as restarting my computer but the problem remains. Is this a bug with the new update? Does this happen to anyone else? Should I re-install Skype?

hola yo tengo un problema similar al tuyo, tambien empezo cuando actualice ayer mi skype a la version 7.0.102, es que cuando inicio sesion con mi cuenta hotmail, abre normal, pero cuando empieza a cargar las notificaciones se congela completamente y me sale el mensaje que ha dejado de funcionar

Premiere Pro crashes when sending files to media encoder

Premiere Pro CC keeps crashing when sending files to Media Encoder. This is a new problem. I cleaned the cache, typed purge into terminal, checked the sharing in the preferences library and verified/repaired disk permissions. What else can I try? Help, I have urgent deadlines this week!

I am using the most updated version of PPro CC with OS 10.8.5. It seems to have issues with certain sequences and not others. It also may be the files themselves. They play fine in the program viewer and I have sent them to Media Encoder before, but if I create a new sequence with the same settings and copy the files into it, the same thing happens. I have a lot of 29.97 720x480 (1.21 pixels) and 1440x1080 (PAR 1.333) footage to edit together and create dvds out of (not my idea - it's a job) and I am in the middle of trying various ways of encoding to make it as clear as possible.
Currently I am using 1440x1080i HD anamorphic sequence settings encoding into 1440x1080 p HD anamorphic with frame blending, maximum render quality, Target bit rate of 30 VBR 2 pass. Then combining those files with other sequences into a longer 1440x1080 p HD anamorphic sequence and encoding MPEG 2-DVD NTSC widescreen progressive 100% quality, VBR 2 pass and the output is much better. This has been working, and today suddenly it stopped and started crashing. Any ideas?

N73 freezes when sending a message

Hi , my Nokia N73 Phone freezes when sending a message. Other unctions are working fine.
The phone software is updated with latest version.
Need help guys!!!
Cheers
Sachin

update you stuff and try code number two, you will lose all phone data but it might help your issue
*#7780# - Restore factory settings - resets all the settings to the default ( you will not lose any data)
Make sure you back up your data as you will lose all of it when you perform option 2 or 3 on this list.
*#7370# - Reformat your phone
This you perform as a last resort. Nothing else is working. Turn off your phone, hold the following buttons while pressing the power button. (the default code is 12345)
re-flash - hold the following buttons *, 3 (number button) and talk/green key. turn on the phone and do not release those buttons until you see the Nokia boot up screen.
If these codes are not working the only thing for you to do is contact your Nokia Care Center/Service.
You know what I love about you the most, the fact that you are not me ! In love with technology and all that it can offer. Join me in discovery....

InDesign CC freezes when packaging files.

InDesign CC freezes when packaging files. Just spinning beachball. Need to Force Quit. Tried resetting Prefs at startup (holding down keys), but no change. Looking for path to Default and Data files, but not finding them in Library. (D'oh!) Downloaded most recent CC versionlast night. Any ideas or should I try CC (2014)

Hi Pam,
I would certainly give CC2014 a try.
Other than that, make sure there’s no illegal characters like slashes in the file or folder names and that the path is not too long.

Mail Freezes when sending forward or reply

Hi there,
Starting two days ago Mail.app has been freezing when I am trying to send a reply to a, or a forwarded, email. I have searched this discussion group and found a thread at http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3272941&#3272941 , but I don't think that it applies to me because:
A. I'm working with a POP account, not a .Mac account.
B. If I'm reading the Hawkwings and Macgeekery stories cited in the thread correctly, they're talking about freezes when hitting the "forward" or "reply" buttons. My Mail.app freezes when I tell it to send the message.
C. Does not come out of beach ball mode. Must have to force quit to cure.
However I did take care to check my keychain to make sure that it wasn't checking .Mac and or for any certificates. It isn't. Also made sure that my preferred network connection was listed first. I also rebuilt my mailbox. What's really puzzling is that I can send new messages at will with no hassle.
Any Suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Malcolm.
The fact that in your case Mail doesn’t freeze until hitting Send indicates that your problem is different, indeed.
Anyway, in addition to ensuring that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list in System Preferences > Network > Show: Network Port Configurations, try turning OFF all the port configurations except the one needed to connect to Internet and see whether that helps — if it doesn’t, turn ON again the ones you want enabled.
Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
Do you have any Mail plug-ins or system utilities that could interfere with Mail? In the Finder, go to each of the following folders (if they exist). What do you see there?
/Library/StartupItems/
/Library/InputManagers/
~/Library/InputManagers/
/Library/Mail/Bundles/
~/Library/Mail/Bundles/
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.
<hr>
Try to obtain additional information as follows:
1. Open /Applications/Utilities/Console.
2. From the File menu, choose either Open Console Log, or Open System Log, or both, so that Console displays the contents of both system.log and console.log.
3. Reproduce the problem and look at the bottom of the Console windows for messages that might be written there as a result. If any, they may provide some clues.
<hr>
Try this to check whether the problem is system-wide:
1. Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Accounts and create a new user account for testing purposes.
2. Either log out of your main user account or just quit Mail so that it does not interfere with the other user account.
3. Log in as the newly created user and set up Mail anew there.
4. For spam-related security reasons, go to Preferences > Viewing and disable Display remote images in HTML messages if it’s enabled.
5. If you set up a POP account, go to Preferences > Accounts > Advanced and disable Remove copy from server after retrieving a message if it’s enabled, to avoid messages being accidentally removed from the server while testing.
6. Check whether the problem also happens when logged in as another user.

throw Exception "java.io.IOException: Write error"Who threw it, the client or the server? At what line of code?
You'd be better off declaring those remote methods to also throw IOException and let it be thrown back to the client if it happens, rather than catching it silently inside the server. That way the client knows the server is failing and can made a decision about whether to continue.The client should also show the complete stack trace, not just the message.

CS4 Freezes When Deleting Files

I've had CS4 now for a few weeks and I'm finding that whenever I try to delete a .htm file, the program freezes. I've tried the idea of deleting that cache file in the configurations folder. I've even renamed my configuration folder so a new one would be rebuilt. Same thing with the preferences folder. Any ideas on why this is occurring?

I'm also getting frequent freezes when I try to open a folder in DW. I click on the little + sign and it just locks up. Very, very frustrating. I just upgrading from DW 8 to CS4 and right now, I'm instability like I never experienced in DW 8. Please help.

How to stop request for admin password when sending files to trash?

I am requested the admin password when ever sending a file to trash using the mouse or the context menu.
How to stop this annoying request?
It was not like this before.
I am working on a non admin account for security reasons. I got admin details here of cause.
Thanks for you help!
Till Kopper

I gave my working account admin abilities in the system preferences. logged out and back in. Run the command line "sudo rm -rf ~/.Trash" as Topher Kessler suggested. Now my own password was accepted (before this ine and the admins accounts one failed). No there is no annoying request for the admin passowrd when sending a file to trash. changed my work account for no admintrative in the system prefs and logged out and in.
Problem solved.
THanks to Topher Kessler!
(how to give you now the 10 point you deserve?)

CS2 freezes when saving files

I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit and suddenly my files freeze when saving. Runing version 9.0.2. Can anyone help?

Photoshop CS2. When I work on a file and click "save" it freezes. If I click save as, using the same name it freezes. If I save it and number or change the file name it save correctly without freezing. i.e. Save 1.jpg' save 2.jpg etc.

Freezes when adding files

all was perfectly well, until i hit the update button and got 7.5.
Now as soon as i try to add a file or a folder. Itunes freezes up and (though it still adds the files, about one album per two hours. And i get the "not responding" message if i try to do anything while its running.
this only happens when importing files to the library, everything else works.
ideas?

It is always a good idea to run a virus and spyware scan before starting troubleshooting to elimate malware as a cause.
There is an Apple article on troubleshooting freezes:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302856
First check to see if the problem is User-specific by opening iTunes in another account.
If the problem is system wide, try the section on "Conflicting Processes" first.

MS-7519 freezes when transferring files

Hi,
can anyone help me with this problem ???
Whenever i try to transfer or copy files within the same drive or partition or from USB drive, the computer freezes randomly and I need to do a hard restart.
I have a clean install of windows and this happens in safe mode too, especially if the files are larger.
Sometimes the transfer is almost done and the PC freezes almost at the end of the transfer, but sometimes it freezes in the beginning.
And after it freezes when I restart and try transferring again, it freezes quicker ( in the first 3-4% of the transfer )
I have done tests for CPU, RAM, HDD, GRAPHIC CARD, PSU, and all of them are passed.
I have also taken out the HDD and tried to copy files on another PC and there it goes OK.
Is something adjusted wrong in the BIOS or maybe I need to update the BIOS ???
Have somebody had the same problem or if you have any suggestions ???
Thanks in advance.

Windows CS3 Programs Freeze When Opening Files

Windows CS3, all programs freeze when trying to open files by going through the file menu.
Able to open files when navigating with windows explorer then right clicking on file and choosing "open with"
Windows XP Professional SP3, 4 Gb Ram Quad Core Processor.
Have uninstalled and reinstalled CS3 (Design Premium)
Have deleted photoshop settings file and tried using photoshop.
Any time I try to open a new file or existing file by going through the file menu the program freezes and must be terminated using the task manager.

Erika,
I wish you had posted that last night. LOL I'm glad it worked for you and I will tell anyone who has this problem to try that before they try my fix. I was starting to have other problems like inDesign corrupting images.
Here's how I fixed it,
I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS UNLESS YOU ARE WILLING TO RISK HAVING TO REFORMAT YOUR PC.
1. Backup entire pc
2. Deactivate Creative Suite 3 (or whatever application you are having a problem with)
3. Uninstall problem application or suite, then uninstall everything by adobe.
4. Search PC for all folders and files with "adobe", no quotes, in the name.
5. Delete all folders and files with "adobe", no quotes, in the name.
6. Restart PC
7. Run ccleaner and also run the registry fix.
8. Restart PC.
9. Backup registry.
10. Scan registry for "adobe", no quotes. Delete every instance of "adobe", no quotes making sure the reference is truly "adobe" and not something else.
11. Restart PC.
12. Install adobe suite or application.
13. Install any other adobe application you may need.
Worked for me, but
I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS UNLESS YOU ARE WILLING TO RISK HAVING TO REFORMAT YOUR PC.

Safari Freezes when attaching files

Hello Someone/Everyone,
My Safari browser freezes when I attach files using yahoo. I've updated to the newest flash. still nothing. I've read the majority of the discussions here and no luck. Most involve viewing a crash report. I don't have a crash report since it technically doesn't crash. It simple doesn't allow me to do anything else so I have to force quit the application using the activity monitor. Any ideas on what to do... thanks in advance for your help.

HI,
Uninstall the BrowserPlus which isn't compatible with Safari 5. That's why Safari is freezing why you attache files in Yahoo mail.
Go here for instructions.

Computer freezes when transferring files

Aside from a whole host of other problems I am having with Lion (on a new drive with a complete clean install--twice!!) I seem to be having a very serious one where whenever I try and transfer a file (USB drive, external drive, mounted web drive) the computer become inoperable during the transfer. While the computer doesn't completely freeze up, it is impossible to do any work as clicking on a window may take 4 - 7 minutes for it to respond to that click.
I sort of feel that this problem is probably what is causing all my others. The computer becomes totally unresponsive and I often have to wait 30 - 50 seconds for it to catch up on what I'm doing. It is as if it cannot manage multiple tasks. Thinking that this was due to my User Account, I logged into a guest account and pretty much had the exact same experience, especially when transferring files.
Doe anyone have an idea as to what I can do to fix this?
