I know why Pages sometimes very slow!!!!

Hi, I faced the problem with Pages become extremely slow. Sometimes Activity Monitor showed that Pages used 58-70% of CPU (I run PowerBook with 2 Gigs of RAM)
After readying all related threads and trying everything, the problem still remained.
Then I tried something else - I changed all graphic settings from "Fixed on page" to "Moves with text." Bingo! No Pages flies consuming only 10% of CPU.
My document was only 20 pages long and had a couple dozens of graphic items (some of them were groupped), still they consumed a lot of computational power.
So, if your Pages document becomes slow and you suffer as I did - check how you postition graphics on the page and try what I have done.
Have a nice day.

I've tried all of the above to no effect. When I take one of the templates that Apple offers I can type at a normal speed. However, when I create an original document, text goes in sooo slowly as to make the program unusable. I have a simple two page three column brochure with about 400 wds in it and three simple jpeg files. I quite using Pages 1 for this very reason and Pages 2 hasn't seemed to have corrected the speed issue. Frankly Appleworks works better. I'm running a G4 1GHz Aluminium Powerbook and while it's over two years old it should have plenty of horsepower to handle this simple program. I've gleaned the lists here and other than anecdotal 'fixes' that work sometimes and sometimes don't I've yet to find a reason or a solution for this issue. Pages 2 will be put back on the shelf. No Office killer this...yet. On the other hand Keynote makes the buy worth while. I'm just disappointed that the world's best programmers have dropped the ball here. Frankly, I shouldn't have to implement 'work arounds' for a program this simple.

  • UIX page run very slow on Jboss

    hi.. i am using Jdeveloper 10.1.2 to develop my application and my application containing JSP and UIX pages.At last i deploy it onto Jboss 3.2.7.
    It work properly, but i found that each time user access/open a page, which never open before, that page(either UIX or JSP page) show very slow. After that when user open it again, it show out as normal.
    Now, the problem is, when user close the browser, open it and access that page again, for JSP, it show out fast, but for UIX, it still take time to show out. I dont know what cause this happen. And i wondering that is that any way to configure ADF UIX in order to increase its performance?
    Please give me some suggestions and guides. Thanks in advance.

    You're not the only one with this problem. There is a long discussion, with some proposed solutions, in this thread (and searching for "slow" in the Pages forum will bring up other threads as well).

  • Wakes from sleep very slowly, starting to flicker sometimes, very slow to load websites

    wakes from sleep very slowly, screen starting to flicker sometimes, very slow to load. i use microsoft email and just did an update. did this affect my system? My msn mail is awkward..... today, beeping sounds starting at random. ???

    i did a restore off the Toshiba discs i had made, and again, it ran fine in the beginning, then all of sudden a month or two, and it started being slow again.
    I expect something you installed or updated caused the trouble. Best strategy is to identify the culprit.
    I would restore from the Toshiba discs again. Then carefully add things one-at-a-time, rebooting, and checking things out after each.
    Be sure you create a restore point prior to adding hardware or installing software. Microsoft programs like Windows Update will automatically make one before installing anything.

  • Pages gets very slow when working on a long table in a document

    Hello!
    I'm working with a table in pages09. it goes over pages. as soon as i want to write some text in the different fields, or, worse, CHANGE text in the fields, pages gets very very very slow.
    why? what can i do?
    i tried the wrap/unwrap-function, but it has no influence.besides, if it's not wrapped in the text, i cannot see the whoe table.
    do i make some mistake?
    thanks for answers, greetings from zürich
    kolibri

    The code used to drive tables is quite the same than the one used by Numbers.
    It is slow in Numbers so, it's logically slow in Pages.

  • Why EP is very slow just after it is started?

    Hi, all.
      Our env is like the following.
      EP 7.0(NW 2004s).
      But i think this also applies to NW 2004.
      Just after EP is started, when the first user logs on, EP is very very slow
    (takes long time while logging on and navigating) and its server CPU goes 100%
    for a while. Why?
      This phenomena is very similar to the situation that usual JSP web pages are
    slow at first because it has to be compiled. Does EP have the same reason?
      1. Could someone teach me what would be the possible reason?
      2. Is there any way to avoid this phenomena? Like precompiling or something
    like that.
      Best Regards.

    Hi Sejoon,
    To add to answers above - When a user logs in , in addition to login time and services/components are loaded into memory, also first time navigation takes time. This is to load the entry points (in TLN and first level DTN). These entry points are loaded into navigation cache (if not there yet).  if indeed it takes too much time to load these navigation entries and its a problem , you can consider using the navigation cache preloader:
    see http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f0f1358d-0812-2c10-b58c-c7bdd7a0cdce?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true&42477226648018
    and http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f0f1358d-0812-2c10-b58c-c7bdd7a0cdce?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true&42477226648018#page=30&zoom=100,0,842
    It will upload all of the roles of a specified user into the navigation cache.
    Best Regards,
    Tal

  • Why aperture running very slow?

    I just installed additional ram and the other day aperture was running extremely slow. The only other application was iphoto.
    How much CPU power does aperture require?
    thanks.

    After consolidating iPhoto pictures into Aperture Library - and having to rebuild library all photos are shown under "Other" in storage under About this Mac.  How do I get photos back into the Photo section.  I am sure this is why Aperture is running very slow.  Aperture library is on a 500 GB external USB hard drive.  Does anyone know how to get photos into the right spot in the storage. 
    Nothing in my experience would make me draw the same conclusion (that the reporting of your Aperture Library as "Other" is why Aperture is running slowly).  You report that your Library is on an external drive connected via USB.  Is this USB 2 or USB 3?
    The consensus is to put your Library on your fastest (lowest latency and highest throughput) drive.  This is almost always your system drive.  If your Library does not fit on your system drive, you are advised to move some or all of your Images' Master from the Library to a second drive using "File→Relocate Masters".  If you want help with these set-ups, post back.

  • Why HttpURLConnection became very slow in JWS?

    I answer if somebody know why HttpURLConnection in a JWS application is very slow.

    Hi camsuresh and thanks for your reply.
    The specific code is this:
            URL url = null;
            HttpURLConnection connection = null;
            BufferedReader br = null;
            DataOutputStream parameterWriter = null;
            String line;
            try {
                    url = new URL("http://myServer.it/myPHPScript.php");
                    connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
                    connection.setDoInput(true);
                    connection.setDoOutput(true);
                    connection.setAllowUserInteraction(true);
                    connection.setConnectTimeout(1000 * 60 * 2);
                    connection.setRequestMethod("POST");
                    parameterWriter = new DataOutputStream(connection.getOutputStream());
                    String parametri = "user=" + user;
                    parameterWriter.writeBytes(parametri);
                    parameterWriter.flush();
                    parameterWriter.close();
                    connection.connect();
                    br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(connection.getInputStream()));
                    line = br.readLine();
                    while (line != null) {
                      System.out.println("line = " + line);
                      line = br.readLine();
             }catch(Exception e){
             }If i execute this code in my IDE (NetBeans) or by the jar file it run very fast.
    On opposite, if i upload the signed jar on a server and execute it by JWS, this code will take a long time to execute.
    So i think this is strictly dependent on JWS execution, because in traditional execution it's all ok and very fast.
    I hope that my english is well enought! :)

  • HP DV6 3209 TX does not shut down properly & sometimes very slow

    Hi,
    I bought a HP Pavilion dv6 3209 tx laptop only one month ago. It provided Win Home Basic. I tried to install Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick along with it, from a pendrive .... I didn't get installed, & at that time, The screen suddenly became colourful with some bizarre symbols !! I shut it down with the power key.
    Since then, The home basic became very slow, cpu usage often reaches 100% or very high even while idle, does not shut-down properly.
    Then I formatted the hard disk,clean-installed Win 7 Pro (Got it from msdnaa) as well as ubuntu maverick. Now when I restart the system, it shuts down & restarts. But if shut down, then the desktop goes blank, but the fan keeps running, power indicator keeps glowing, system never shuts down till the power key is long-pressed. Also, The CPU usage becomes very high, sometimes it's normal.
    I'm confused. Is that any hardware issue ? Do I need to format it again, install xp sp3 & check it if the problems remain ? Please help !!
    when the lappy runs in Ubuntu, it's operating speed or CPU usage is normal ..... even when I'm writing this reply from Win 7, everything is normal, but sometimes it's not so smooth...... task manager shows CPU usage as 90 % or more !! I've decided to install xp & then check if the shutdown issue & slowness remains there too.
    Windows-Linux-Unix-Mac

    SOLUTION  :
    Open the BIOS (at the starting press f10).
    f9 to restor default
    Then save and exit (press f10 again)
    Restart the computer.
    Do this again and set it back to "Enable" that wil help the computer to not over heat.
    And now your ROVE will start and sleep correctly.

  • Why system is very slow after installing Mavericks

    After installing mavericks my system becom very slow. startup also very slow. when i open an application it spins. what should i need to do

    Launch the Console 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 Console in the icon grid.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
    SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.

  • Why is web page loading very slow from microsoft Outlook hot links

    Clicking on any hot link embedded in an Outlook email takes from 45-60 seconds to load. If I cut and paste the same link, loading is almost instantaneous. Are there settings I can adjust? IE8 used to be somewhat slow sometimes but never this slow with Outlook links.

    What can I do to help this situation?
    I've got fresh copies of OSX running on the macs that I mentioned, and I haven't specified any dns settings in the connection properties. I don't think dns has been specified on the windows machines either.
    A DNS server has been specified on the router. Should I try removing this ip address and let the router look for it's own dns server?
