Keyword freezes
When I keyword using the HUD sometimes it will freeze and just do nothing for a while or will do nothing for a while and the wheel starts to spin for an ungodly long time. Sometimes it crashes and has to be restarted.
It does this when I have selected several keywords and am about to drag them to a highlighted image or images. It just, dumbly, since there for a while or proceeds to crash.
Has anyone else experienced this?
The keywords themselves are in the Aperture library, not in the plist. You can safely delete the main Aperture.plist to see if this helps things.
However, better to just rename it (say, Aperture.plist.BAK) and then re-launch Aperture and Aperture will create a new blank plist. That way if the doodoo hits the fan you can just delete the new file and rename your old one back and you're where you were.

Photoshop CS2 freezes on initializing (solved)
So, I just spent a lot of heartache (read: reinstalling Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger multiple times) to try and solve this error:
Photoshop CS to will show the splash screen (splashscreen ?) when I click the executable, but the splash scren just sits at Initializing .
After searching this forum and finding nothing, I found the answer at macosxhints.com : http://forums.macosxhints.com/showthread.php?t=77648 .
The answer: repair disk permissions, reboot, and start up photoshop again ( Applications > Utilities > Disk Utilitiy > Select Disk > Repair Permissions).
Anyhow, I thought I'd post the answer here for the next lost soul who can't seem to find the answer.
Thanks!

IPhoto freezing up when adding keywords
Hi all, I've been trying out iPhoto 6 for the past few days and have run into a frustrating problem. Every time I add a keyword to a picture, through Keyword Assistant or otherwise, iPhoto will take time to "think" before adding the keyword, usually for a few seconds. With multiple photos being tagged with keywords at once, it can drag on for a minute or two. As you can imagine, when trying to sort through and organize newly-imported pictures this can be a real pain.
My organizational structure is basically all smart albums, and I have about 25,000 photos altogether. Other than that it seems to run smoothly. I've upgraded to 6.01 but this doesn't seem to help. Any help is appreciated, thanks!I have the exact same problem : Adding a keyword to 3 pictures takes 6 seconds (or more) and don't even think of doing it on 20 pictures... iPhoto 6 will either freeze or will take several long minutes to complete.
I regenerated the thumbnails, no effect (wild guess). I tried the fsck -fy while booted in single user, no effect. I tried with Onyx to clean everything, no effect (well, one, the browsing the library is faster). I've also rebuilt Spotlight index (both with a software and manually), no effect.
My library contains 18,000 photos. iPhoto 6.01.

Bridge freezes after adding a new keyword & wont allow the keywords to work
when I am in bridge and working away - ill create a new keyword -so select new keyword, type in the name and then hit enter etc... when I go the new keyword which I have just created - it wont allow me to check the box (so tick it & allocate it to an image OR any image) - I must re-start bridge and then it works...
is anyone else having this issue?

amyYes, where you click is critical, and it varies from word to word sometimes, seems to be a little to right of where you expect.

1000's of keywords imported - Lightroom Freezes and burns CPU
I imported approx 7000 keywords (most with hierarchical synonyms and some with sub-keywords). In other words a BIG keyword collection.
Now I cannot use Lightroom. When I start it it becomes non-responsive (Windows XP) while burning huge amounts of CPU. I have LOST ACCESS TO MY IMAGE COLLECTION!
Please, please, can someone tell me how to delete ALL KEYWORDS outside of Lightroom, so that when I start it it will be usable again?
I have searched my hard disk an cannot locate any files corresponding to "keywords".Well, I discovered some things which may be of interest - but no actual solution.
First, I bypassed the problem completely by going back to my last "pre-keyword" catalog backup, then importing the 2 days of image files (including XMP sidecars). This gave me back a responsive Lightroom, with all my (meta)data.
Regarding Lightroom's keywords, I found that they are stored in a table in the catalog, which is actually a SQLite database. The table name is AgLibraryTag. You can install SQLite, then run it on the lrdb file:
sqlite> .schema AgLibraryTag
CREATE TABLE AgLibraryTag (
id_local INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
id_global UNIQUE NOT NULL,
changeEpoch INTEGER,
dateCreated NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
flattenedParams,
folderInfoCache,
genealogy NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
imageCountCache DEFAULT -1,
kindName NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
lastApplied,
name,
parent INTEGER,
sortDirection,
sortOrder
doing a "select * from..." on this table gives a dump of all my keywords. So...I figured that emptying this table as follows might solve the problem, given that I hadn't actually assigned any keywords to any images:
sqlite> delete from AgLibraryTag;
sqlite> select * from AgLibraryTag;
sqlite> vacuum;
sqlite> .exit
WRONG! Lightroom loads, but all my folder information is lost.
I gave up and worked around the problem as noted above, but if anyone from Adobe reads this - you NEED to provide a way to delete large numbers of keywords. If a reasonably high-end WinTel laptop chokes on 7000 keywords then this is NOT usable software. -
When i try to upload photos from my iphone iphoto freezes after a few have been uploaded, force quit shows that it is still running. I have left it running for days with no change. In addition Places is continually running, would this have an effect?
Help much appreciated.The next step is to repair your main library: apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended freezes on startup under Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit - No splash screen
I installed my licensed copy of Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended today as part of my install a bunch of software after a reinstall of Windows (due to viruses). I did a completely fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. I've used Photoshop CS3 Extended for quite a while now so I know what to expect on startup but it was previously installed under Windows XP Professional (32-bit). Figured I would give Windows 7 a chance this time around.
Google searches aren't turning up anything. When I attempt to start the application, I get a window with the title "Adobe Photoshop CS3" (no "Extended" - I seem to recall the title changes later) and the toolbar appears. However, no splash screen appears and no Product Activation wizard appears - the application simply freezes on an empty frame and a toolbar. I've tried running Photoshop as Administrator (right-click, "Run As Administrator"), but nothing changed there. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling. I tried upgrading to CS3 10.0.1. Nothing works. The application simply freezes before it gets anywhere.
I tried calling Adobe Support since this technically falls under installation issues but their phone support systems are down today. Go figure.
Edit: I hooked into Photoshop with the Visual Studio debugger and every single thread is executing some variation of WaitForSingleObject() or WaitForMultipleObjects(). The main thread is "executing" somewhere in AdobeLM_libFNP.dll (at address 09619d81 - if I had debugging symbols for CS3, I could provide a function). There are nine threads "running" at the point the freeze occurs - but all of them are technically suspended due to the functions they are executing - and one thread is in a suspended state.Log Name: Application

And, according to the Event Viewer, the "Binary" data translates to a zero-terminated Unicode string of "Cross-thread".
My Visual Studio analysis was far more informative. All threads are hung inside of WaitForSingleObject() and WaitForMultipleObjects() calls and the DLL in question appears to be FlexNet-related. I did forget to mention that I also even manually started the FlexNet service in case, for some strange reason, Photoshop was waiting for it to start. That also did not work.
(And there is nothing in the Action Center control panel either despite the message saying there might be more information there.)
Edit: The timestamp above might be a little odd-looking. I didn't originally see anything in Event Viewer until I clicked the first button to send an Error Report. Mostly I just skipped that part of killing a process. -

ITunes freezing (but not always)

Illustrator CS6 Freezes/Hangs on SaveAs
When I open a dwg file in illustrator or another AI file that I've exported from Rhino & try to 'Save As' in Illustrator, the application freezes and I have to kill it via task manager.
This problem started mysteriously about a week ago. I've spent countless hours troubleshooting & also tried a fresh install, but no dice. Please help!
INFO:
I'm running Windows 7 64-bit & an NVIDIA Quadro 4000 graphics card.
I pulled the following info from Event Viewer (let me know if I need to be providing other information & where I can get it):

0010: 00 00 ..Hi guys,
Ok - fingers crossed, but the problem seems to be solved.
It was very strange bc when I opened up AI from scratch, drew a bunch of random shapes & tried to Save As, it worked fine. However, when I opened any file where the vectors did not originate from AI & tried to Save As, AI froze -- the AI save dialogue would not pop up after I input the file name and selected file destination (in the explorer save window).
In another forum entry (Re: Illiustrator CS6 crashes when creating New File) someone suggested changing the default printer, so I tried that & oddly enough it worked! Some of the printers my computer is hooked up to are networked & some aren't - I just switched my default to a non-networked printer.
If someone from Adobe could please explain what Saving a new file has to do with computer printer defaults, it would be really great to understand & might shed light on other similar issues.. thanks!! -
HP Photosmart Studio freezes after launch
Does anyone else have a problem with HP Photosmart Studio freezing/not responding as soon as it is launched?
I have a 15 inch MacBook Pro running 10.5.5, though the problem has been the same since 10.5.1.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled the latest software from the HP web site, deleted preference files, repaired permissions etc but the problem remains.
Any help would be welcome.I can confirm that I, too, am encountering problems with HP Photosmart Studio (version 9.6.9) that is mystifying me. I spent about 10 hours trying to figure out the problem, but I did not come up with any solution.
I have not yet explored all of the HP software features that came with my HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-One, which so far seems to be a very fine machine that has delivered full functionality in printing, scanning, copying, and faxing. The one feature that does not seem to be functioning properly has to do with scanning a JPG image to the HP Photosmart Studio. Every time I've tried to do that, I get the same result: the image gets scanned OK and is deposited into a folder called "Scanner Output." That part is good. However, whenever the Photosmart Studio application is launched—either as part of the scanning process, or if I just launch it independently of triggering a scan via the HP Device Manager—the Studio application delivers a spinning sundial gauge next to the "Keywords Album" item for about 30 seconds, which is the followed by the spinning beach ball, indicating that the application is not responding. I must Force Quit it.
That is what has happened since I first installed the HP software on my PowerMac G4 running Tiger, 10.4.11. Uninstalling the HP software and reinstalling it does not fix the problem. The thing that mystifies me is that I cannot discern if the problem lies solely within the HP software or if there is something wrong with Tiger on my PowerMac G4. The reason I say that is that, in order to isolate the problem, I ran comparative tests of the same, freshly reinstalled HP Photosmart Studio on an iMac G5 running Tiger 104.11, and I did not have problem getting a stable Photosmart Studio window to appear. The same spinning sundial gauge appeared, and it spun for awhile, but it eventually disappeared and the application became functional, unlike on my G4, when the spinning beach ball appeared.
Additionally, back on my PowerMac G4, which also has partitions running Panther and Leopard, the HP Photosmart Studio application, which resides on the Tiger volume, loaded OK when I re-started the G4 under Panther and Leopard. However, I do not consider that a solution, since I could see no way that I could access images that were not on the startup drive.
I wish I could say definitively whether or not the problem lay within the HP Photosmart Studio component of the quite extensive software package that came with the All-in-One, or whether there may be something amiss, or incompatible, with the Mac OS. But all of my tests thus far do not allow me to reach any definite conclusion. As you requested, it would be nice to know from others if this software application works or not with the Mac OS. For me, I guess I am just going to have to work around that particular feature, at least on the Tiger volume on my PowerMac G4. Strange, though, isn't it?

IPhoto 8 freezes on startup, possibly due to Library data
I can't get iPhoto 8 to open any more on my iMac running Snow Leopard. The program starts up, shows an empty iPhoto window, and then the spinning wheel just spins and spins until I force quit.
I suspect that this is because something has gone wrong with the photos and data in the Library file. I say this because if I launch iPhoto while holding down the option key, and select an "empty" Library file with no data on it in my local hard drive, then iPhoto can open. But when I try to open iPhoto with my real Library that has all my photos on it on an external drive, it now is freezing as described above. Of note, my Mac crashed and rebooted while iPhoto was open, and then this startup problem began. This has happened to me in the past, but if I reboot the Mac then iPhoto seems to work fine again. That's not the case this time.
Also, in case this is important, my iPhoto library has grown to about 150GB in size. Could this be part of the problem? Is there a limit on how many photos or how much total data that iPhoto can handle?
Any advice to solve this would be greatly appreciated.Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

A "freeze " option in the library filters ?
1 My problem :
When I choose the "no keyword" filter, I get the correct pics selected, BUT as soon as I enter ONE keyword , the pic disapears from the grid.
Normal , it has now one keyword
I would like it to stay , the time to enter other keywords
2 My proposed solution: add a "freeze" icon
When it is selected, the pics stay on the grid , the filter is refreshed only if the "freeze" icon is shut down , or if we change the grid (other filter, other folder etc...)
It would be also useful when I try to fine tune the stars (select above 2 stars for instance) and the selection would freeze so I can compare the pics even if I upgrade ou downgrade certain pics.
3 There is a loop around , go through the quick collection, but it is not very practical, just have to type
ctrl maj B,G, ctrl A, ctrl B, ctrl D,
for : clear quick collection, grid, select all, put in quick collection, select none ...and start to work
I have written it on the mirror of my bathroom, so I can recite it by heart every morning while brushing my teeth!!
What do you think about that idea?Another quick workaround would be to add a single keyword to all your "no keywords" or stars at one time that would be easy to find at the top of the alphabetical keyword list (like 1 aaa...) and work from there. Then delete it when all your keywords are assigned. Not as elegant as your solution but it might avoid those worried posts to the forum from people who can't figure out why Collections aren't working right when the "freeze" button has been unknowingly selected.
