Mesh like pattern - pixelation - when moving objects on new MBP i7 15"
i call your attention to this archived thread from a while back regarding screen pixelation on MBP. just got 2.80ghz i7 15" and have the exact same problem as posted here
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=10489770
anyone have similar issues, is this just the way the screens are now? my previous MBP (less than 2 years old) did not have same problem.
basically, whenever an object is moved around on the screen, you can clearly see a change in resolution with more pronounced/visible pixels.
thoughts?
this is the first page of the previous thread - the one i meant to link to

Is there a "blur moving object" feature in Premiere Pro 2, like for pixelating a moving face?
When I went to post this question, I put "blur" in the tags, and it offered me a list of tags with the word "blur", including "path blur", which sounds like what I'm looking for, but I a did a search in the PDF manual for Premiere Pro 2, and it didn't find that anywhere.
Thanks,
digiThere is no path option in PP2
If the subject is moving you need to keyframe position over time yourself.

Crash when moving objects...
I have a HUGE problem... in fact I have had lots of problems with Illustrator... but this is anoying.
At least 10 times a day the program just crashes when moving objects... some time text, some time pictures, sometime lines.
Every time i submit a CRASH report with the details... but really I think they are TRASH reports, I mean I have NEVER get an answer, update or ANYTHING from ADOBE.
Last week I almost lost my job because of the ineficiency of the program, the thing is that I used to work with Corel and I was the one who tooked the desicion to change to Illustrator, so I spend the money on an entire suite,GOD!!
My question is simple, it may sound bad, but honestly Can I get my money back? Does anyone have heard about someone getting just so frustrated with the suite like me?
I love PS, I work just fine with DW, but Illustrator and Adobe support is killing me and leaving me without job.

619-671-0100 x 273 my phone, just in case that a miracle occurs and someone from Adobe can help me.!!!Ok, here I am after the crash number 8 of today, one more time moving objects in a document...

For no apparent reason my Mac (2 GHz PowerPC G5) running 10.4.11 has put a mesh-like pattern over the folders on my desktop and also a band of the same pattern across the top of the screen and down the right-hand side over the dock. (See screen grabs below.)
It doesn't affect any operations but makes folder names and drop-down menus difficult to read through the pattern.
I'm not aware of changing any settings so suspect I must have clicked on something without noticing. How do I get rid of the overlaid pattern, please?Information about my computer is as follows:
Machine Name: iMac G5
Machine Model: PowerMac8,2
CPU Type: PowerPC G5 (3.1)
Number Of CPUs: 1
CPU Speed: 2 GHz
L2 Cache (per CPU): 512 KB
Memory: 1 GB
Bus Speed: 667 MHz
Boot ROM Version: 5.2.5f1
It looks like this at the back: -
When I using the mouse to select portion of the diagram or the panel, or when I moving objects- I found that in all the vi's that I compiled from former versions of labview- there is a delay of close to a second to the actual selection or movement of the item. This happens in 2 machines out of 5 that I tested it, and it happened both in windows 2000 and in windows 98. any suggestions?
Sometimes a video driver issue. Update your video driver.
Or turn down the video driver hardware acceleration. Right-click an
empty area of the desktop, choose the Settings tab, choose the Advanced
button.
The location of this differs in different versions of Windows.
Win2000: go to Troubleshooting, and turn down the slider for hardware
acceleration.
Win98: I think it's on another tab.

Version 33, problems when moving tab to new window, then if you open a new tab in that window it doesn't switch to it unless you use Ctrl-Tab.
Type '''about:preferences'''<enter> in the address bar.
Select '''General.''' Look for '''Tabs.'''
Turn on '''When I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately''' -
Old applications are pixelated when viewed on my new laptop?
Hi I've got a new MacBook Pro with retina display and I'm having issues with some older applications, such as Adobe CS5 and Microsoft office (2011) are pixelated when viewed on my new laptop. How can I fix this?
There are only a few apps that have been optimized for retina display, all other apps, including CS5 and Office are basically zoomed up to fit the 2880x1800 screen.
Apple once again ahead the times ! -
Objects in Photoshop "jump" pixels when moving
Hello
I was wondering if someone could help me with something that is really starting to annoy me.
When I'm moving objects in Photoshop, I find that they sometimes "jump" across pixels when I'm moving them.
For example, lets say I've got an image and I've zoomed in so that each pixel is shown as a large square. The rightmost edge of the image is on column 1 (bear with me).
Each column is 1 pixel wide. So it would look like 1 2 3 etc.
The rightmost pixel of my image is on column 1, and I want to move it to the right so that it is lined up on column 2.
I move my image to the right, but it doesn't land on column 2 at all and skips it, to end up on column 3. So I move it left and it again jumps column 2 and ends up back on column 1.
I hope this makes sense.
I've experienced this on Photoshop 7 and CS2, on 3 different computers. I used to experience something like this in Microsoft WORD during IT classes at school years ago. We had to go into a menu and uncheck something to do with grids, but I can't remember exactly what to do, and I can't find anything that looks familiar in the Photoshop menus.
I really hope this makes sense to someone, because it gets incredibly annoying when I'm trying to be precise.
Sometimes zooming in to 400/500% stops it, and everything moves smoothly, but it doesn't work all the time.
It doesn't always "jump" one pixel either. Sometimes the "jump" can be 3 or 4 pixels wide.
I would very much appreciate any help with this. Its driving me mad.
Thanks.Thanks for the reply. :)
I've just looked through all the menus, trying to find something about anti-aliasing, and I found my problem.
It was View > Snap to.
I set it to None and I have no trouble now. I'm almost certain thats the name of the menu I went to in Microsoft WORD. Can't believe I didn't see that before.
So thanks for the advice. I wouldn't have fixed this without you. :)

Make positive vertical position change = UP when moving object? CS6
When moving an object, entering a positive value for vertical position sends objects DOWN. How do I reverse this such that entering a positive value will move objects UP?Thanks.
What about the suggestion in the first post in this thread, Reasoner?
http://forums.adobe.com/message/3859580#3859580?tstart=30#3859580
It is more work than using a script (was linked to in post #4 in the other thread).
We may have to ask Carlos to make a new script that works in CS6 (and in CS7 and CS8 and so on).
Carlos, what say you? -
I Would Like a "Expert's" config. of a new MBP
I was offered by my parants that they will but me a new MacBook Pro. As much RAM as I want, the (solid stae) newer kind of HD, but about a year ago it was getting a bad rap from a lopt of comments I read on here. I can't remember the exact name fo the HD, but I think it had solid state in it. and I took a look at the new MBPs and there is a lot that is new to me. My last MPB was about 4 years ago and did not have half as much of the functions and special parts as the newest one I could see online.
so, I am wondering for basic architecture (software use), i would like to start backing up but i never have excpet when I backed up on the CDs a long time ago, and anything ele if someone gace you the chance to put together the most basic, but powerful MacBook Pro, what would you configure? I do some arcitecture teaching on the side with grade school kids, and I teach online grad students in kinesiology and exercise rehabilitation.
Please anybody that can just put their ideal machine together, and any explnations I would appreciate it. I will right off the bat go get the max in the RAM area. Is it possible to get a battery that has a longer life? I remember when I got this MBP there was supposed to be a big difference but it has been the same maybe even a little worde than the previosu MAC.
this may sound stupid like a lot in this post, but is Lion the best and the lates OS. I am getting the iPhone 4S from my sis so if there is anything I should get with the MPB that I might use for the phone or visa-vera, I would like that. I loved the Verizon MiFI2200 3G I had with this MBP, but it stopped working and no Verizon tech could get it to work, they suggested I go to the 4G. I hear Verizon says they have 4G but they really don't. somepone told me I could get a set-up that would turn the phone into a mobile hotspot but that may be beyond my mental ability. I was thinking about just getting wither the Verizon Samsong 4g mobile hotspot or what replaced the MIFI22003G but in the 4G category. the 3 G MIfi woked grest with my MBP but I have not read anything about the 4G that Verizon has out. Both of my contracts ae up from my verizon phone and the MIFI2200 4G so they have a $50 NEw Every Two (which they stopped) but are still offering it to the people that had it coming so I have 2 of the $50 New Every Two rebate type $$ that I just subtract $50 from the any 2 devices. I am using one for either the Samsong mobile hot spot or the MIFI 2200 4G (not sure if this is the right nae for the MIFI2200 3G replacement)
Also, is it better to get the machine and bring it back to the store so they can register the machine with the machine's name, and any other reason why I would want to take it back to the store? I remember they did some things to may last one, like document some thing in various places which did help he a few times when asked for something by the genius bar, set up the One-to-One for me so I would sign in, I knew how many sessions I had, what topic areas I wanted to test, etc.
My final question, I am still using a CAT5 long kind of fryed ethernet cable. A was reading a post on here that talked about the Blekin CAT6 ethernect cable is better if you take your machine to hotls that use the ethernet connection to get the internet, it will give you a slightly fast speed, independant of the speed the internet is gettting from the hotel. Any thought on this or is still the basic CAT5 just as good? I would like a little shorter one and more quality so the thing does not crack off from the main cable, the platic tab has a less chance of breaking off.
I think that is it. It is a gift and I do not want to get anything and everything I can think of but I would like to get the best MacBook Pro the Experts would suggest.
I am hoping at least one or two experts will take uy questions seriously so I have some standard to go byt because there are so many new names for the latest MBP, I do not think I would know most of the devices I was selecting are.
Not sure if it possible, but does Mac come with USB 2.0 yet? if so, I would like as many as those as I could.
Thanks. I really do appreciate it.There is no configuration of a MBP that will satisfy the needs of all users. The variables are too many for the tasks that are required for the MBP to perform.
If cost is no object, the fastest CPU is a given as well as RAM. Needs for same may be few and not often if ever used, but certainly will do no harm,
Storage is an issue of a HDD with greater capacity compared with the speed offered by SSD with lesser capacity.
Size can be important. The convenience of portability of a 13" MBP with the larger and heavier 15" and 17' MBPs.
In the final analysis, you have to make these decisions.
Ciao.

Configuration question(s) and when to buy the new MBP
1)If I was going to get a new mbp today, what i had in mind was to get the 15 inch mbp(2.53 ghz) and upgrade the processor to 2.8 for an extra 300 bucks. Then since I have an external hard drive and space isnt really an issue for me, I was going to downgrade the hardrive on the mbp from 320 gigs ATA at 5400 to the 250 gig ATA at 7200 to save a few bucks. Now this is actually an upgrade in quality/speed..correct? because the speed is now 7200 as compared to 5400? So it will preform better than the orriginal 320 at 5400?
2) As far as buying the actual computer I want to try to get it around or just after christmas.....if not then, I would get it at the beginning of summer around May. Now it is probable that apple will work out any bugs that owners report in that time. So do you guys think it is better to wait til May so that everyone who has their brand-spanking new mbp's can report any issues and then apple will iron these out? Generally I like to try and wait a little while to buy a brand new model of anything computer related so that anything apple missed can be fixed. What do you guys think about this?, I was going to downgrade the hardrive on the mbp from 320 gigs ATA at 5400 to the 250 gig ATA at 7200 to save a few bucks. Now this is actually an upgrade in quality/speed..correct? because the speed is now 7200 as compared to 5400? So it will preform better than the orriginal 320 at 5400?
The 250 will perform faster then the 320 because of the rotational speeds
As far as buying the actual computer I want to try to get it around or just after christmas.
There will always be a faster computer coming out in a few months. If you need/want one in December buy it then. Intel is only going to provide an update (speed bump) to its penryn line next year sometime and will be releasing the Nahelem i7 mobile chipset until Q4 2009 or Q1 2010 which means in all likelihood apple will not be using the next generation chips until 2010. Buy now (or December) because the product line was just updated and the next update is quite a bit down the road

Artifacts when moving object with arrow keys.
Hi all
hope this is the right place to post this question.
I want to to write simple arkanoid game in Flash (AC3). I've managed to write code that moves my paddle with arrow keys. The code looks like this:
function OnNewFrame(event:Event):void
if (input.IsLeftHeld)
if (paddle.x > 0)
paddle.x -= 10;
else
if (input.IsRightHeld)
if (paddle.x < stage.stageWidth - paddle.width)
paddle.x += 10;
It works but the result is ugly. The animation is not fluent, there are times when paddle stops for a moment . Also when speed of translation is high (here it is 10) you can see that paddle is flickering at the ends, it looks like single buffering problem. You can see both of those effects here: http://www.flash-game-design.com/flash-tutorials/movOb.html , hovewer flickering is less visible due to small translation amount.
How to fix this? How can i enable double buffering (or maybe it is enabled by default)? Any help will be appreciated.
P.S. sorry for bad englishThanks for samples, this is very kind ; p
Hovewer you are doing everything almost exactly as I'am doing. Tou are using mySymbol.x++ which means your translation speed is 1. Also I'am aware that rising frame rate will result in smoother animations, but this is not the point. So once again, my flash applications suffer from two problems:
1) Animations are not smooth. You can see this crealrly in here: http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/hittest.htm , go back to the very bottom of the page, there is an animation window, look at the smallest circle. It looks like its blinking.
2) Moving symbols with arrow keys with the method i've presnted in the first post (the same method that infeter uses ). Moved symbol is randomly stopping for the very (very very) short amount of time. You can easily spot this in infeter sample.
Many sample applications i've seen suffer from those issues. and nobody seems to see the problem, so maybe I am delusional? ; p

Please hide original when moving object
When you select an object and move it, the object stays there and you drag, instead, a blue wireframe, or in the case of Text, a blue, ghosted copy of the text.
Am I the only one who thinks this is just clutter?
It's bad enough the original object doesn't come along for the ride when you are in the act of moving it.
I constantly have difficulty seeing what I'm doing by having 2 copies of the same thing, in aroundabout the same space. Especially when I'm tweaking a position.
Is there some conspiracy to make using Illustrator a headache?
I can't even be sympathetic because I have no clue why it works this way.
Would anyone care for a preference to have the original object temporarily vanish while moving it, keeping just the blue outline?
Hell, it's gotta go anyway; when you release the mouse it poofs from it's original spot and pops in the new one.Is pressed
By the way same thng hapenning to bridge when previewing videos. after click start the preview image is gone, stop the playback the image come back and that happen over and over, why? A video code with a problem or something in thos softwares? I have the latest version updated for both programs.
I was reading that after effects renders on the cpu, but I have a Core i7 3770k ivy bridge and 12Gb ram. So I don't understand! -
Photos become pixelated when moved to new photo album?
If I create a new photo album and select photos from camera roll or photo stream, once moved, they become pixelated in both locations. Help?
Did I miss something?
The Shared Photo Stream is supposed to show the photos in the order that you add them to the stream - the newesst photos at the end of the stream. But that will not work, if you add all photos at once. I find, I get he best results by adding the photos one by one, and letting each photo upload, before I add the next one. -
Illustrator crashes when moving objects in live paint group
A little help here...
Illustrator CC keeps crashing whenever I try to move a path or an object in a live paint group. I've tried it on other computers, but they seem to work fine. It seemed to only affect my laptop, so I'm not sure what happened. Restarting and updating it doesn't seem to solve the problem.
Here are the technical specifications for my Macbook Pro:
Mid-2009 Macbook Pro 15"
2.8 GHz model w/ SD card slot
Intel Core 2 Duo
Has Mavericks
4 GB of RAM
Please help!!! My project is due the next week!
Thanks,
MichelleI think I know the solution to the problem (for me anyway)!
I have been plagued by this CC problem for months with Illustrator, In Design and Photoshop. I even bought a new machine because of the stress it caused me, and not to mention the lost work hours!!!! But since buying the new machine and having it happen again, and again and again, I have ruled out all font, software, plugin conflicts - because there is nothing on my machine that was on the old one. All of my old files are on an external hard drive and I have had Illustrator CC crash several times with the hard drive ejected. This is what leads me to think (in my case at least) that the machine/files/plugins are not the problem. Here's what has worked for me, and where I think my problem stems from:
CC membership allows you to run the Adobe applications on 2 machines, in most people's cases that's home and office. I have two machines; one for work with one set of preferences that my CC account was made with, and another machine at home that is shared and has an entirely different set of preferences.
When an Illustrator file is left open on my work machine (the machine that the CC account was created on) with a long period of inactivity (e.g. over a weekend) Illustrator CC on my home machine crashes constantly (as soon as I try to move an object it crashes). As soon as Illustrator CC is closed down on my work machine, Illustrator CC on my home machine is then fine! And then both machines will the run Illustrator CC again simultaneously until the work machine is left for another long period of inactivity (a couple of days). Then, when it is, my home machine crashes again.
I also noticed that each time Illustrator CC asked me to send a crash report from my home machine to Adobe it would pull the email from the preferences on my home machine, not the email that the CC account was made with (which is the email on my work machine). It could be that leaving Illustrator CC/any of the CC apps open and inactive for a couple of days causes some kind of 'time out' period on the account.
This could explain why Illustrator CC would work again on my home machine (briefly) when trashing the account preferences.
So to re-cap I have solved my seemingly inexplicable problem by making sure that Illustrator CC is not left open for long periods of inactivity (2 days seems to be the threshold) on one machine, if the account is being shared across two machines.
Please let me know if this A. makes sense and B. helps anyone.
