Indesign slow because of mount_webdav
I've just noticed a problem with my Indesign CS2. When I go to type some words it does the first 2-3 characters then it hangs for about 5 secs with spinning beach ball before it proceeds. I've isolated the problem to the "mount_webdav" process. If I quit this process in the activity monitor Indesign performes normally. Anyone have an ideas whats going on here?

A day or two ago I went through installing Adobe InDesign CS4 on Leopard OS X.5.8. After what appears to be a successful installati
on, in launching InDesign CS4 the message " You can't open the application "Adobe InDesign CS4" because it is not supported on this
architecture" comes up". Calling in to support and speaking with the agent who read through previous posts, suggested to me that I
should try the same fix that has been suggested when I ran across an error when installing Adobe InDesign CS4 on another separate ha
rd drive externally connected to this computer running Snow Leopard OS X.6.1 for the error reading: "Damaged &/or incomplete install
ation" when launching afterwards. The support technician told me to first delete with the uninstall Adobe InDesign CS4, InDesign.
Following this I am told to run the CS4 Cleanup Utility. I restart the computer each and every time after running each of the utili
ties. Now I am told to install InDesign as a trial version from the DVD and after installation to go ahead & enter the serial numbe
r. When launching InDesign CS4 after installation got back the same error as before: "You can't open the application "Adobe InDesig
n CS4" because it is not supported on this architecture" comes up". Followed KB404711 article and no success. What else can be don
e to fix this issue?
This morning contacted Adobe Support regarding this response:
After having a detailed reserach on your issue i acme to the conclusion
that the problem you are having is not related to Adobe software but its
in fact related to your MAC version ( OSX-5.8). While reseraching your
issue i came across
to many forums where a lot of postings were about the similar error but
with different products the only comon thing was all the Errors were
with Mac machine , also when you check the system requirements for
Adobe Indesign Cs4
by going to the following link
http://www.adobe.com/products/indesign/systemreqs/?promoid=DRHXE you
will find the Mac OS version supported are from Mac OS X
v10.4.11–10.5.4. but we do support Snow Leoprad , so i would like
to advise to you to either contact your system manufacturer or upgrade
to Snow Leopard ( mac os x 10.6)
I have been told that my case is being sent to Level 2 agents and that it can take 24-48 hours for a response. In the meantime I decided to see what the Support Forums can do for me. Until then I am down. Thanks for the help.In the application folder there is a folder 'Adobe InDesign CS4' within which there is just the application file. I would expect there should be more file there??
I've un-installed and installed again - still the same.
Even downloaded the dmg again and done thwe whole thing over again. -
Not sure if I am doing this right. This is my first time in the support community.
I imagine what I put in my heading was supposed to go in here.
I want to use Back to my mac. When I try to turn it on, it says "Back to my mac may be slow because more than one device on your network is providing network services. Turn off NAT and DHCP on one of the devices and try again. See the documentation that came with your device for information about turning off network services"
Does anyone know how I do this? I contacted my ISP (Telus in Canada) and they did not know anything (not that they usually do).Why do ISPs insist upon making things so difficult for their customers?
If you cannot get them to understand that you would prefer to use your own router over their piece of cheap junk, perhaps the information in the following will be useful:
http://keithbalomben.wordpress.com/2012/03/29/telus-actiontec-v1000h-hacks-and-i nformation/
Scroll down to DHCP Settings
You will need to log in with proper "technician" credentials. They are provided in the above link as
Username: tech
Password: t3lu5tv
... but these may or may not work. Try it, and if you cannot get anywhere at least now you know what to ask Telus to do in return for your business. -
ID Install - Can't open the application Adobe InDesign CS6 because it may be damaged or incomplete.
Trying to install inDesign CS6 on my imac. But everytime I try at end of install I either get a problem with install error, or if it does show up in my applications folder, it has a "no" sign and when clicked I get:
"You can't open the application Adobe InDesign CS6 because it may be damaged or incomplete."
Need help, Im a freelance desktop publisher and need this to work!After I deleted Adobe File Manager because it was always popping up annoyingly, I got a similar "damaged application - reinstall" message. However, InDesign didn't seem to be affected. Nevertheless, I reinstalled AFM, and fixed the problem, except for the annoying appearances of AFM.
If it's not present on your system, you can search Google for "download adobe application manager mac" without quotes, to download and install it.

In Aperture 3, how can I easily move entire projects out of my main Ap Library into other libraries? My Ap library is running super slow because it's overloaded, so I have created two new libraries, but can't seem to move the projects into them?
Hello Annabel,
To move entire projects export them as Aperture Libraries, and then import those Libraries into the other Aperture Library:
Select the Project in the Inspector, then
File -> Export -> Project as Library
In the other Library do:
File -> Import -> Library/ Project
But I am not quite convinced, that the size of your current Aperture Library is responsible for the slowness of Aperture - Aperture is designed to cope with huge libraries.
You may want to post your hardware setup and details of your library, and some of the hardware experts here may help you to find the reason for the slowness.
A huge library should only be a problem, if the projects are too big, and if you have many, many smart albums at the root level of your library.
So keep the projects small, and try to move some of your smart albums to lower levels in your folder structure (then Aperture does not need to scan all of your images to build the smart album).
Other reasons for Aperture's slowness may be, e.g.
An overfull system drive and/or external drive (keep at least 20% of your drives empty)
lack of RAM
a corrupted Aperture Library, that needs repairing
Have you checked those options, before you split your library? It would be a pity to split it, for you would loose the ability to browse all parts at the same time, to use all your images in the Media Browser, etc.

If I upgrade my iphone 3Gs to iOS5 then whether its speed will reduce or it will become slow because its processor is only 600 MHZ ? If it is so then whether it should be upgrarded only to iOS4 ?
Thanks,
PRANAJI'm running iOS 5 on my 3GS, and it runs fine, granted it's not as fast as a 4 or 4S, but it will still run fine.

CS4 "You cannot open the application Adobe InDesign CS4 because it is not supported on this archit
Just installed CS4. Ai and Ps open fine. i get this prompt with InDesign.
You cannot open the application Adobe InDesign CS4 because it is not supported on this architecture.
any clues on how resolve this?
thanks!I'm having exactly the same problem with InDesign from CS4 Design Standard (Photoshop and Illustrator both work), and I don't know what to do. I've called up the Adobe support line five times, and received five different answers, none of which have worked (and on three other occasions, my call was dropped, once after an hour on hold).
One of the Adobe tech support people said to me "None of CS4 works with either 10.5.8 or Snow Leopard. We will issue a patch for that soon" - which directly contradicts what Adobe itself says on this site. I also went to see a Mac Genius, who couldn't help either.
I have a 2GHz Macbook with 2GB RAM running 10.5.8. I've run the uninstall, and the Adobe Clean Script, I've repaired permissions on my drive (which isn't case sensitive), restarted, reinstalled, tried installing on an external drive and then tried downloading the trial, in case it's the install CD - nothing works.
Any suggestions, anyone? Might there be a problem with my library that is stopping the install? Something else?? I bought CS4 for InDesign primarily, this is not good. -
What can I do to start the program again, when it does not answer? The only message I get is that there is a serious problem.
Thanks a lot for your quick reply! However, it works again, after a restart!

Is illustrator running slow because of large file size?
Is my illustrator running slow? I have an i7 3770K, 16gb ram, gtx 660i 2g, h100i, ax1200i and maximus formula v. I'm running dual 24" 1920x1080 monitors. File size is 800x600 pixals with 5 layers and 100+ paths in each layer. Is the program running slow because the file is too big or is there a problem with illustrator?
If you have a internal HD available, you can select it as a scratch disk...
the above dialog is from CS3, but you have something similar in your Preferences file.
If you are running out of disk space, then there's not enough scratch to perform certain ops efficiently and it could slow things down considerably. Just a thought. -
Hi
I just upgraded my PC. On my old PC indd was pretty fast. If I had to work with .ai's in high-res display mode in indd, it was laggy but not bad. However now, working with linked .ai's in high-res mode is down right painful. I'm using CS5.5.
OLD PC:
Quad Core 2.8
8GB ram
raid 1 C drive 10k disks
Nvidia 8600gt w/256mb
NEW PC:
i7 6-core @ 3.33
24GB ram
crucial SSD's (no raid)
evga 2win w/2GB ram
With my new PC I can render fast in Premiere Pro and STILL have plently of room to play with Photoshop at the same time. I am totally blown away that with the specs of my new PC that working in high-res mode in a simple layout program like indd is slow! The .ai files are B/W line drawings, no transparency or textures, or anything of any comlpexity.
Yes, I am (as I always do) working over a network. But since I can work on huge videos and photoshop over the network simultaneously, I don't see why it should be an issue for indd. Both my NAS and my PC have dual gigabit nics and I am LACP'ing though a procurve switch.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Paulfunction(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
Well, I'm sure you already know that InDesign is known to be touchy when working over a network, because otherwise your parenthetical comment
Yes, I am (as I always do) working over a network.
would be unnececssary. Also, I gather from this comment (emphasis mine):
Actually, I only added that because I expected people to say "it's a network issue". So I was emphasising that working of the network is normal for me. The only time I had issue working over a network was with Premiere Pro or AE on my old machine, but the network issue there was only marginal, since the CPU was pegging out.
In short, working over the network was never been an issue for me.
function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
For what it's worth, I've never seen Live Screen Draw work on any machine, ever, no matter how robust
Well, that tells me alot - maybe I was just expecting too much. I was so impressed with how Ppro and AE's performance improved, I thought well heck, INDD gots to be improved too! However, this still doesn't explain the "downgrade" feeling I am having in INDD.
My display driver is smack up to date, but yes, that doesn't mean it is flaw free. I'm using a gtx 460 (which is two cards in one).
I need to rule out that it is not the ai files though, so let me look there for a bit. As a final test, I may downgrade my display driver to see if there is any difference. I remember with my old cards at some point I had trouble and had to stay a few releases back, or I'd suffer.
Thank you -
Bridge is slow because it's only using two threads
I'm finding that Bridge (CS6) exhibits very poor performance when building 100% previews, I think the software is limited to only two threads.
If you load bridge and go into a folder with some images and then Tools->Cache->Purge you'll see that Bridge takes a long time to rebuild the previews even on a high end machine, especially if you have both "Always High Quality" and "100% Previews" selected. I think the problem is that it appears to build the previews using only two threads on the CPU, so while a 2005 dual core machine might get maxed out, a Quad Core, or 8 Thread, or even 12 Thread machine sits there mostly idle while Bridge grinds away for an hour or more.
It's easy to check this, just load up Windows Task Manager, and view the "Processes" tab and Bridge will only ever use 2 threads worth of CPU cycles, i.e. 50% on a Quad Core, and 17% on a 12 Thread high end desktop. I've seen the problem with JPG files, PSD files, and NEF files (Nikon RAW). The processing time of large Nikon D800E NEF files is very slow. After shooting 900 images I can expect the preview build time to take over an hour on a super high end machine with loads of memory, storage IO, and CPU cores and threads, all because it appears bottlenecked on software design. Meanwhile the machine is only running at roughly 20% utilization, the memory barely used, and the IO system close to idle.
I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit, 64GB RAM, 12 Thread Core i7 3960X at 4Ghz, two Nvidia GTX470 graphics (in SLI), a 2-way RAID-0 SSD storage array for the OS, and an 8-way RAID-0 SSD array for the photoshop work files. The hardware is clearly not the issue. Although, just to check, I confirmed the same problem exists on a simple Win8 Core i7 system, and a Core i5 laptop.
Even worse, after waiting an hour to build previews for 900 images (3 seconds each), after adding GPS data, or after making edits in Camera Raw it then needs to rebuild all the previews again, this is understandable, but super fustrating when you know it's not working as fast as it really should be.
To be clear, I'm not upset it takes 6 seconds per image per thread - there's a lot of work to do, especially with D800 files. But I'm upset that Bridge's software design only uses 2 threads, and thus limits performance to building a preview every 3 seconds, when in fact it could be working 6 times faster on a PC with 12 thread, and I find it shocking that Adobe's latest software wouldn't be optimized for anything more than a dual core CPU, wasn't quad core launched in 2006?
Roland.
P.S. for any Adobe Tech's reading - I submitted this under case number 184020852 and there's an attached PDF in the ticket including several screenshots.There have been many discussions in Photoshop forum about processor speed and multicores. I know Bridge is not Photoshop but it may give you some insight as what is going on. Photoshop has supported multithreading since CS3. Here is a quote from Adobe Tech Note:
Photoshop generally runs faster with more processor cores, although some features take greater advantage of the additional cores than others. There is a law of diminishing returns with multiple processor cores: The more cores you use, the less you get from each additional core. Therefore, Photoshop doesn’t run four times as fast on a computer with 16 processor cores as on a computer with four cores. For most users, the increase in performance that more than six cores provides doesn't justify the increased cost.
I run embedded thumbnails (therefore 100% previews are off) as they take up less space and are the fastest to load. I ran a simple test with Bridge CS5 (32 bit) and CS6 (64 bit) on one folder of 200 video images totaling 16 gigs, or 80 meg per file. With folder loaded I clicked Tools/Cache/purge cache for xxx folder. I then timed the rebuild until the arrow stopped spinning in lower left hand corner. For CS5 the time was 35 seconds. For CS6 the time was 72 seconds.
I then took a folder of 1147 jpg images of 660 meg (427k/image). In CS5 it took 12 seconds to build the cache, and the same for CS6. However, the interesting part of this is when I loaded this folder in CS6 I had never been there before so it had to build it. THis took 80 seconds. When I purged it an it rebuilt it took 12 seconds. I have noticed this phenomemum before where the initial build takes 5-7 times longer than a rebuild of the cache.
I then ran the same test with the still images with 100% preview and Always High Quality. With CS5 it took 3 min 30 seconds and with CS6 it took 5 min. 20 seconds.
So with these very SIMPLE tests I conclude that CS6 has quite a bit slower cache process than CS5. As we have all learned with buying new products, new and improved does not always mean it is better. -
CS5.5 InDesign slow/crashes with Mountain Lion OS
I am working on Final layouts in InDesign, using Full Resolution photo comps created in Photoshop. Both Indesign and Photoshop have crashed at least 5 times today. It takes about 5 minutes for a link to update in Indesign , after editing in Photoshop . . and that is after the 3-4 minutes it takes for the Photoshop files to save. I am not viewing files in Full Res in InDesign , because it takes takes twice as long to anything when Full Res is turned on. This is with no other apps open on my machine.
First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
Take these steps when you notice the problem.
Step 1
Launch the Activity Monitor 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 Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
Next, select the Disk Activity tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in and Writes out.)
Step 2
You must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way as above. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
Post the 50 or so most recent messages in the log — the text, please, not a screenshot.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into a message.
Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out before posting. -
Indesign slow with Bridge -Photoshop-Illustrator
Hello there,
First, sorry for my english i'm French.
One of my collegue is experiencing issue with CS6 indesign.
Installed in a PC with Intel core i7 370 2.93/2.93 gHZ, 16 GB RAM.
Windows seven 64 bits.
Once he open a files of more than 10 Mb in Indisign and open in the same times Bridge or photoshop to integrate pictures or illustrator the PC get really slow and the users must wait several minutes to get the work done.
I never use myself The CS6 so I don't know if this behaviour is normal.
Before that the user was using CS4 and he did not have so much trouble with the same kind of files and he was doing the same work on it.
Beside the CS6, the unit has some standart software installed, Microsoft office 2003 and basically that's all except web navigator and some soft like cccleaner,VLC,Quicktime, nero burning room, kaspersky antivirus...
He never get any error message, or blue screen or whatever...microsoft and adobe updates are done.
All users in the services have the same hardware and software and this is the only one who had issue, the only difference is that he is working on bigger files.
I have ask him to try to work on the PC of his colllegue to check if issue appears to but he willbe able to do the test tomorow PM only.
When we have migrate from CS4 to CS6, I did not reinstall windows, just desinstalled CS4 and then install CS6.
I didn't use the CS cleaner tool....
Did someone knows where the issue can come from ? drive access or software related ?
It's busy timing for now so I don't want to reinstall all the PC and CS6 before knowing it will solved the issue.
Thx a lot,
ElisaIs there any technical support when you buy CS6 ???
I mean our compagny had Cs4 before and now - like there is no upgrade anymore- we bought 9 complete CS6 license ( including 2 master) and no help from adobe ?
So basically: adobe, it's we get your money we are happy if you have issue, we don't give a s**t !!! -
Context menu for .exe and .lnk slow becaus of nv3dappshext.dll
Hi
I recently made a fresh install of Windows 7 and I'm now noticing that the context menu for .exe and .lnk files opens very slow. With the help of ShellExView it looks like it is caused by C:\Windows\system32\nv3dappshext.dll. If i disable nv3dappshext.dll the
problem goes away. So my first try was to reinstall all Nvidia drivers but that didn't help. I'm now thinking that there is some other file that makes nv3dappshext.dll corrupt.
Is there anyone here that might know what's wrong?

CS4 InDesign Slow with files opened from shared drive
We have an issue that I can't seem to figure out...
I have six different people using Word files and InDesign files that are being opened from a server. When going from Word into InDesign (or vise verse) it takes a few seconds for the cursor to become active; however if the user is copying text from Word to any other Adobe product (Illustrator, Photoshop, Quark) no lag at all. They are also all getting a PDF creation failed when trying to save to the server (error is attatched).
It's not a specific file because all six people have the same issue, and they're all working on separate projects.
It's not machine specific since (again) all six Macs have the issue.
Obviously it's an InDesign issue, but what, and why all of a sudden?
Any help would GREATLY be appreciated.My first guess would be that the client OS version could be apart of it - small changes to the SMB client in 10.6 could explain it. I'd also be interested in looking at the firewall issue. It may well be a combination of both.
I think said earlier that working locally was not a problem, so you've already done the first logical test. Next, I'd think about trying the following, the order of which I'd base on their level of difficulty:
Temporarily put one of the problematic client machines inside the firewall (or the server outside of it, though I assume that would be harder/impossible)
Either upgrade one the of the problematic machines to 10.6.2, or create a Snow Leopard boot system with InDesign installed (on an external drive?) from which you can boot the machine
I'm sure getting rid of the firewall is not a long term solution, but it would be good to know for future reference whether the firewall is involved. Would upgrading to Snow Leopard be in the cards if it does seem to fix it?
