Is This forum SLOW today?

Or is something up with my isp?

The MOTU XT 128 works well with my Cross-bike - you just have to get an adpter from your local cycling store and watch the air-pressure of the tires regularely (buy the Intel version). My cats are internal so no glitches with them - just put some catfood and meatchunks into the Disc drive every morning...

Community Forum slow this afternoon

Anyone else noticed how slow this forum is today? Other sites and forums are as speedy as ever.

Why does this forum perform much slower than form forum in metalink?

I feel strongly that this forum performs much slower than the form forum in metalink where there are even more active and more issues created there.
I don't know why Oracle creates two form forum, which one is faster and another one is slower.
What is the difference b/w them besides here is jsp pages and over there is plsql pages?

Oracle certainly allows you to have users that do not have roles. Or users that don't have any system privileges. Or users that don't have any object privileges.
If you want the query to return a row for every row in DBA_USERS, you would need to outer join all the other tables to DBA_USERS.

All Forums pretty slow today!!!

I am not able to login to Adobe forums nor read any of the forum posts
today here in cold Sunday night in London, England. The time is 21:33 GMT
The only way to post anything is by email and that too is not reliable
because the messages are trimmed if there is some html/css code with
links to outside websites.
Hope the engineers can rectify this quickly.

In AZ, USA, I only saw one little "glitch," when I got logged-out automatically, but speed has seemed about "normal," so maybe it depends on the server node?

This forum is running very slowly for me....

Hi,
I'm on a new 24" iMac and for the most part things have been running well. But starting yesterday, this forum started running very slow. Especially today, just clicking the link to this forum from my bookmark takes at least 2 minutes to go through.
When I click a link to go to this forum, the blue progress bar progresses one (1) inch and then stops for a long while. Finally if I wait, the link usually goes through.
I've browsed to other links around to make sure and it seems to be mostly this site. Sometimes other forums (The Parallels Forum) may run very slow as well.
Is this just the way it is with forums on the web or is this a real defect I'm experiencing ?
I know this question seems stupid, but I'm very curious as to what could be happening.
Many Thanks for any help on this, Frank B.

I concur with Kappy and Bee. I'm in San Jose and I've observed a distinct slowdown in the past few months. Nearly unbearable, such that I don't read them much these days.
The only thing worse than reading the forums on a Mac, is reading them over the Edge in Safari on the iPhone. Most of the time, the app times out before a forum page comes up .
Maybe they are doing some sort of upgrade in transition, just like the Apple Store in Valley Fair Mall (Santa Clara, CA). You'd have to see to believe the congestion they are dealing with there in their temporary 'boutique-shoe-store-sized' store -- could be < 800 sq ft) !!

HT201303 was just having this problem until today. It is now all sorted and I can explain what to do very simply and easily.

I was just having this problem until today. It is now all sorted and I can explain what to do very simply and easily.
I remembered the answers to my questions, I just forgot "EXACTLY" how I entered the text - so I had to have them reset. The easiest way is to sign in through www.appleid.com. Then on the right click the "Manage your Account" link and sign in. Easy so far right. Then, as others have said, look on the left of the screen you will see a link called "Password and Security" - click on this. Now this is where the confusion begins. Some people have a link located directly under the existing questions that looks like this "Forgot your answers? Send reset security info email to blah blah blah email . If you see this click it and it will send an email to the "Rescue Email" address that you entered when you originally entered your answers. Follow the instructions contained in this email and you are done. If you cannot remember this email address or you have since closed it, you will need to go to the Itunes Express lane and send an email to Apple requesting them to reset your answers.
HOWEVER IF YOU DO NOT SEE A THIS LINK UNDER THE QUESTIONS - this means that you DID NOT enter a Rescue email address when you originally set your questions. The only way you can now reset your Security Questions and Answers is to go to the Itunes Express lane and email Apple asking to have these reset. I have 2 apple accounts, one for myself and one for my daughter - as I did not include a rescue email I had to email apple. On both occasions, these questions were reset and an email sent to me exactly 24 hours after I sent them the request. I entered the new details, WROTE THEM DOWN EXACTLY AS I ENTERED THEM THIS TIME, entered a Rescue Email this time and I am good to go again. Simple. Now when I log in and click on "Password and Security" I do have the reset link visable. Apple support are good, they just take a bit of time to get things done, but they always seem to get there in the end. I just wish someone had taken the time to explain this somewhere else in the forum as it would have saved me much time and angst.
To get to the Itunes Express Lane go to this website www.appleid.com make sure the correct country is displayed top right, if not change it. Once this is saved go to the tabs at the top of the screen and click Support. Then halfway down the next page you will see a photo of two random people with a title of Contact Apple Support - Click this. Scroll down until you see the itunes logo, to the right of this you will see the link Express Lane for iTunes Player and iTunes Store - click on this. One the right hand side of the next page click on the link "itunes Store". On the next page click the link "Account Management" check the radio button beside "itunes store account security", select your country from the drop down box and click "Continue". Under the heading MORE OPTIONS, you will see a clickable link called email - click this. Fill in your name, Apple ID and country. Then in the text box, write "I have forgotten the answers to my Security questions, would you kindly please reset them. Thank-You". Then Click Continue, you will be given a reference number and an email is sent to your address advising that generally someone will attend to your request within 24 hours. Like I said previously, I had to do this twice and both times it was reset however it was done within about 5 minutes of the 24 hour cut off, so you will have to be patient. I know 100% that this works for Australia - I am guessing other countries should be similar. Hope this helps someone somewhere!

Standard troubleshooting...
1. Try a Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the slider. Slide to power off. Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the Apple logo.
2. Try a Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider if it comes up. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
3. Remove apps from Recently Used list...
- From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
- Swipe up on the app preview card
- Press the home button when done.
4. If still a problem restore with your backup.
5. If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
6. If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

Need a text box -- similar to what this forum provides

I have users that complain that entering text messages on a
web site is a pain because there isn't any of the editing
capability like in Word. So .... being able to offer a text area
just like the one I'm typing in would be great (mainly the ability
to add bullets, bold, underline, etc.). It's on Adobe's Forum so I
can only hope (?) it's available somehow to use in DW, if even as
an extension.
Anyone have suggestions?

Not a clue :)

I DW you place you cursor in your table/div where you have
inserted
your form and then you select insert - form - textfield.

No coding required here either. But... DW is not a wysiwyg
editor. You
have to have some understanding of html and css... otherwise
you wont
have a clue :)

Well... DW has some built in facilities in php or asp coding
and even
for jsp I think.

Search this forum for "formmailer" and I'm sure you'll be
fine. I think
there is a Alan that gives a great explanation on how to
configure the
formmailer.
I guess that is why they call it dream??? weaver.

No, Tapatalk and Forum Runner don't support Lithium forums, and I doubt that any of the other apps do either.
Lithium does have a mobile interface available that optimizes a community's content in a smartphone's browser, but we don't have it here. There's only so many new features that we can introduce and support in each year's time and $$$ budgets, and Mark would be the only one who would know if the mobile option has been slotted into next year's budget.

This forum and Safari please tell me what to do!

I have to Camino just to use this forum, Safari will not work with it any more.
Please do not move this topic to the safari room because its not safari. Safari is fine on just about every other web page I visit, except apples own!
Problems:
Viewing next page threads. Usually you can get the first page up but going to the next page no go.
Getting to 'your posts' Usually won't load.
Posting a reply. Easily the most frustrating problem. You can sometimes fly through the fourm to the reply, type your reply and nothing, it refuses to load, either safari bombs out saying it could not connect to server or a new pages loads on the web site saying there was an error. also if you click refresh or stop whilst trying to post the mssage the 'post' button is now disabled. The only way to do anything is to copy the text launch Camino and do it from there where it works every single time.
It is the most frustrating problem and makes using the forums very difficult.
If I am the only one fair enough, tell me what I need to do to fix the problem.
Thanks!

Gary,
discussions may sometimes be slow for an hour or so (at which point the opening page of discussions will eventually apologize for the inconvenience, back on line soon...) but your description looks like a cache problem.
Try OnyX freeware to do some cleanup and see if that helps.

After reading hours on this forum still having self-assigned IP address

I just posted this below on another thread but it kinda is in the wrong subforum. This really is a networking problem:
I have spent about 3-4 hours today already (a Sunday after all) reading just about every thread I could find that mentions this problem (airport choosing a self-assigned IP address and thus not sharing the internet from ethernet connection with the iPhone) on this forum and elsewhere.
Power circuit interruption didn't work
rebooting, resetting, etc all not working
password deletion not working
moving it up or down not working
It worked fine now for months. My set up is a dsl router that connects the internet via ethernet to my iMac and then Airport is supposed to share it via Wifi so my iPhone can use it. As I said, that worked just fine for months now.
Yesterday I upgraded to snow leopard and am now on 10.6.4. It worked still fine yesterday!
Then I shut the system down.
This morning reboot and it just won't work anymore.
Any suggestion mentioned anywhere in this forum which a non-specialist like me understands does not work on my setup. I don't know where to go next or who to even ask for help!
It's so frustrating I obviously need this to work.
Because my iPhone has Daylite touch and needs the server setting to work to connect properly and sync. Daylite only syncs via wifi. That's my work!
Anymore ideas out there?

Hi,
thanks for offering help! Really appreciated.
I'm not quite sure how that should help? I'm always a bit with resetting things. What can it potentially mess up that is working now? What settings will be affected? There is a list but I'm not sure if there are any current changes.
And in the list it doesn't seem to be directly linked to any networking info.
I've tried a save reboot now but while this is apparently a good idea in any event, it didn't help solve my problem. Still getting a self-assigned IP.
I wonder if getting a new router might solve the problem? Mine is somewhat old. The weird thing is though that it did work for a short while before it stopped doing so. So this can't really be then, can it?
Oh this is so frustrating. I must get my network running again.

Windows Live Mail ? Links to this forum not working correctly.

I got a new computer running Windows 7 and have been using Windows Live Mail.
This is where I get my e-mails for updates to messages on this forum.
The link for the message thread has a link that includes the # sign with the correct message to go to on the page.
Now with Windows Live when I click the link it leaves the number after the # sign and just goes to the top of the thread instead to the exact comment.
I can copy and paste the link into a browser and it works fine but if I just click it it does not work like it used to with Outlook Express.
Any ideas if this might be fixable.
Thanks: GLenn

I still have outlook express running on my OLD SLOW windows XP
My new Windows 7 only has Windows Live Mail so I have to use it unless I get another program.
I just thought that someone here might have figured it out.
I dont know what the extra part after the # sign is called so i havent been luck searching google for an answer.
Here is the link to your message:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2965072#2965072
but when I click it it just puts this link in the browser:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2965072
it does work but just takes me to the top of the thread.
Im not sure why it doesnt use the part with the # and number that follows it.
It does see it and if hover over it it sees the whole link.
Just something new to figure out.
I will try a Windows Live Forum too but if anyone knows any hints that would be great too.
Thanks: GLenn

Working w/adobe cs6 - it now won't update adobe acrobat. Adobe found that I am not registered in a sudoer file and said that I had to call Apple. They said I should submit it to this forum.

I have installed Adobe cs6. After doing so, Adobe Acrobat will not update. I have been trying to solve this problem with Adobe now for 3 months. Today they say they discovered that I was not in a file named "sudoers file." They told me they could not solve that but that I had to call Apple for a solution. I called Apple and they told me that they could do nothing about it (I'm still not sure whether or not they even admitted that it is one of their files). They suggested coming to this forum for a solution.

Their latest is that my file is not registered in sudoers, whatever that is
There are two files named sudoer.vim on my drive (each in a different folder). They're text files. Both are very well hidden and the contents of either would mean little to anyone not versed in terms used in the text. What Adobe could possibly mean by "your name not being in the file" is anyone's guess. My actual name or user account name isn't in any of the files, either, and my apps work just fine.
There is another text file named sudoers (no file extension) that appears to be a list of who has sudo privileges. But again, it's well hidden, requires an admin password just to open it, and means nothing without knowing what to modify, or how without ruining the file.
Which kind of leads back to this:
"Adobe Acrobat application was modified."
Have you run Monolingual or other utility that removes foreign languages from the drive? If so, you can't let it touch certain apps (like anything from Adobe) or you will run into problems like this. Usually, Acrobat won't even launch if pieces of it have been removed, even if those pieces are completely unimportant.
If nothing else, just reinstall Acrobat from the original disk or downloaded .dmg purchase.

Is this site slow or what???

OMG...This site is so slow to do anything. Just scrolling up and down with the mouse wheel is choppy to say the least.
Is anybody else having poor performance with this forum?

If you install an add-on to Fire Fox called Stylish and then use the following style definitions you can get rid of a lot of the visual pollution of this new forum software. It will allow you to eliminate the childish avatars, allow you to control the page width, remove the ridiculous points earned, and change the background color.

For Forum Admin: Problem with this forum editor

The editor has been adding spaces in words for a while. Is there a way to correct so that our code appears properly?

Hey Dan,

I really tried to get something useful out of this 'forum'.
It just didn't work out.
slow and unstable implimentation.
I use to follow the new posts on the dreamweavr forum and monitor the tips/solutions that more experienced people posted. This is awkward in the present setup.
issues with navigating the site. (can't easily find what I want.)
Yeah, I've been struggling with this new forum, too. I've been using NNTP for so many years that I can do it in my sleep. Web Forums will *always* be slower than NNTP. It's just a fact of the implementation.
But, I am slowly coming around. Here are some things that I have learned:
Start by going to Your stuff > profile > Preferences. Change the View to "Threaded" so you can easily see what the poster was replying to if they didn't quote anything. Make sure your Time Zone is correct (mine wasn't). Subscribe to email for threads you create and respond to. You can also subscribe to email for any thread by clicking on "Receive email notifications" on the right side when reading a post. I still do all of my reading via the Web Forum interface, but receiving email notifications is enough of a time saver for me that it makes up for the slowness of the Web Forum.
I tried to get my picture to show up by adding a picture to my profile, but I discovered that you have to create an avatar.
I haven't figured out how to search these forums with google, but the builtin search works much better than anything I have ever used in any NNTP news reader.
The only implementation problem that I have found to far is that the "Next" button has stopped working a few times. Closing the browser and starting with a new window seems to fix that.
Hope this helps,
Randy

HOW DOES THIS FORUM WORK?

I'd be interested to know how this forum works - are there any moderators who read the posts. I posted earlier today regarding a problem I have on my printer - it hasn't even been viewed.
Quite frankly I'm feeling extremely let down by HP recently. I've always been an HP printer fan but I'm starting to wonder if it really is worth ALL my time and effort - Epson reviews next on th list!!!!

Cook book techs.
Follow a logic tree and hope that the questions asked were for the actual problem. The real problem is that words mean things and if we each have our own meaning.
Freeze--- 5 minutes I see no change? 10 minutes? 2 days later the computer has not done anything?
Hangs up - - no change in 5 minutes? no change in 10 minutes? no change in 30 seconds? 2 days later the screen is different it turned it's self off.
hesitates - - no change in 30 seconds, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 2 tv shows later there is something different.
I am a patient person. Hesitates no change 30 seconds; hangs 2 tv shows later; and freeze 2 days later. Some one else may react differently 2 seconds for hesitates, 30 seconds hangs, freezes 31 seconds.
So the cook book teck may ask whats your problem give you 4 answers to choose from. And each of us may give different answers from our unique prospective. Me it was hangs up where the same problem may be a hesitation or a freeze to another. Of course then the teck decides to enter another answer cos she don't think you know what you are talking about....
C'est la Vie. And they might be in Corvallis Oregon
