How many apps open at once (Windows)?

Hi all
Are there any best practice  posts on (Win) workstations with full CS6 or CC and C4D. If you own (or freelance at places with) decent spec HP Z820 20-30+GB RAM etc would you normally have AI, PS, AE & Cinema 4D open at the same time on Windows? Seems a bit much to me but I thought I'd get an idea from you guys?
If yes, do you often get windows redraw issues? do you change your CPU, RAM allocation etc settings for the task you're doing or just leave it the same as you would if you were just running AE & a web browser,
Cheers for any feedback
Jake

Only have open what you need at that time. Applications don't take very long to open, so starting and quitting them as needed is not much of a burden---not when you consider that each application left open is consuming resources like RAM and VRAM, which causes all of them to process your work more slowly.
This is one of the primary recommendations in this set of resources about how to work faster in these applications:

  • How do I open the updates window in "Adobe Application Manager"?

    How do I open the updates window in "Adobe Application Manager"? Or can I or should I....??
    I am a brand new Cloud member.  I heard of the Retina update.  Assuming this was where the updates would logically appear I went to the "Adobe Application Manager" app first.  Without closing the "Adobe Application Manager" I opened Photoshop and went to the help menu and selected "Updates..."; a second window opened in the already open "Adobe Application Manager".
    I selected update all.
    The result is below:
    DW CS6 12.1 Creative Cloud
    There was an error installing this update. Please quit and try again later. Error Code: U44M1I200

    Now, I closed the "Adobe Application Manager" and opened "Photoshop" again and again selected "Updates..." from the help menu.  The "Adobe Application Manager" opened again with just one window this time and the updates happened correctly.
    I was hoping one of the updates would be to the "Adobe Application Manager", I don't think so.
    So, If I were you I wouldn't select "Updates..." from an Adobe app unless the "Adobe Application Manager" is closed until they fix it...
    Current version: Adobe® Application Manager - Version 7.0.0.128 (7.0.0.128) Note the Two windows in the "Adobe Application Manager" in the attached image.

    The updates are currently available by going to Help>Updates within the Application.  Once you invoke the Updater, which is a component of the Adobe Application Manager, it will locate and apply the updates.  It looks like most of your updates have failed to install.  I would recommend you begin by trying to apply the updates that are available on our product update page at http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/ and seeing if you face the same difficulty.
    If you continue to experience problems with applying the updates then please review your installation log to determine the cause of the failure.  You can find details on how to locate and interpret the installation log at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.

  • How Many Apps at one Time?

    OK, i have a 2.0 MBP and i was just wondering how many apps i can have open without it shutting down or whatever. I also have 2 gigs of RAM.

    I am not aware of the MacBook shutting down because of running too many programs. Clearly, if you open "too many" programs/windows, the laptop (or any computer) will become more sluggish. I always operate with five to ten programs running at the same time--with more windows that that "open." Has not been much of an issue with 2 GB of RAM. But I have noticed that if you have a significant number of Safari windows open (while operating a number of other programs at the same time), things can start to slow down. Is there any real downside to you experimenting (stress testing) your computer?

  • How many apps does 8GB Hold

    hi
    i am getting an iPod Touch 4G with 8GB memory , i was wondering how many app's i can get on it because i wasnt planning on using the iPod for music i just wanted one for apps and possibly 1-2 movies , anybody know ??
    If You comment i would be grateful !
    Thank You !

    Most likely as many as your want, unless you download apps with tons of data, such as a mapping application, or a app that include lots of built-in images, or its own built-in video.
    Otherwise you can most likely have all the apps you want.
    My iPod touch is using 5.8GB for apps, and I have 213 apps on my iPod Touch.  80% of them I do not use after downloading them.  Of the remaining 20% most are infrequently used, a small handfull are used maybe once or twice a week, and about 7 are used daily.
    NOTE:  Of the apps I have on my iPod Touch, one is Stanza an eBook reader, and I have 398 ebooks in that app.
    However, all bets are off, if you decide later you are going to download any videos, or music (or audio books), or family picture, all of which consume space at a higher rate.

  • Show how many apps a developer has in Itunes

    In Itunes 10, I was able to see how many apps a developer has in Appstore, it showed a number. Is there a way to see that number in Itunes 11?

    Hello Mkgojets and welcome to Apple Discussion Forums!
    If you are using iTunes 11 (check by clicking in the menu bar while in the application iTunes > About iTunes), then you can click (again in the menubar) View > Show Status Bar or by pressing "Command /" (Command key and forward slash. This will then display the size of your playlist, how long it will take to play etc at the bottom of the iTunes window.
    Hope this helps.

  • How many Apps can i have on my iPod Touch, is there a limit?

    Is there a limit on how many Apps i can have on my iPod Touch?
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks a lot, that was very helpful.
    I am pretty sure that there's 16 Apps per page,
    so...16 X 9 = 144 - 13 pre installed Apps.
    131 total available (slots) for Apps.

  • How can I open a second window in iTunes?

    When I see some albums in the the iTunes Store I want to check whether I have some of the songs already. The Search function in the Store only refers to the store and not to my Library. So how can I open a second window in iTunes (one with the Store and one with my Library) to make it easier to compare?
    Thanks

    My understanding it that was removed from iTunes recently (I still run iTunes 7.5 from 2007), so no, not unless you downgrade iTunes (which is not easy).  You can send feedback to Apple about reinstating it but I have yet to see Apple reinstate something that appeared to have been deliberately removed from its software, despite vociferous complaints on this forum.

  • DPS - How many apps can i have?

    Dears,
    We're an agency from brazil, an we are developing some apps. How many apps single or multi-folio can we have on DPS and on Apple Store at the same time? Is there a limit on the Professional Edition?
    Can my downloads be divided by many apps? eg. Can I have 2 apps at the same time and they share my 5000 annual .folio downloads?

    Hi Bruno,
    There is no limit to the number of apps you can create within DPS Pro or Enterprise. The distribution bundle will be shared amongs all your multi-folio apps.
    With kind regards,
    Klaasjan Tukker

  • How do you open itunes in windows 8

    how do you open itunes in windows 8

    There is no backup option in iTunes, that was removed years ago.
    Backup iTunes and the media on your computer the same way you would any other data on your computer.
    External hard drives are a good option, copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder to the external drive.

  • Is there a limit to how many apps we can reserve?

    Since iTunes Connect doesnt allow us to delete an app without at least one approved version. So is there any limit to how many apps we can reserve?
    Can we just check the name availability without reserving it?

    Thank you. I've been searching everywhere and I couldn't find anything the mentioned it. I appreciate the feedback!
