Muse freezing, hanging today

Something is very wrong with Muse (CC2014.2.0.569) today. On both of my workstations it loads slow, hangs, freezes and will not connect to FTP. The program worked perfectly Friday October 24th. Looking at the posts from earlier this afternoon it seems to be an issue with other users as well.
Got word?
Cheers,
Jeffery

Sanjit,
Thanks for the reply. I have enjoyed using and stretching MUSE since the first beta releases. Today was unique and not in a good way.
Over several attempts and hours MUSE continued the slow page load, FTP behaviors and hangs. It timed out, it said the FTP password was incorrect, it froze. Twice it got to 1% on the FTP upload but brought up a statement that it could not resolve a muse_php_test.html or muse_php_test.php function. I gave up and continued my workday projects that were DW-based.
So WHERE is this update? It is not in the 'updates' menu, at least not as of this writing.
Have a great day.
Cheers,
Jeffery

Muse freezes after launch Mac OS

I'm using Mac OS Mavericks. It worked yesterday before shut down. Today, when I launched my Muse site, Muse freezes after the Site Map is displayed when I try to edit text on a page. I searched the forums and there was a similar problem last year, but I'm using the current version. I tried disconnecting the network, disabling Typekit, renaming the preferences folder. But, these did not work. Suggestions please. Thanks.

I think I've isolated the problem to text editing: Muse freezes when editing text. I can perform other functions, such as placing graphics, but when I try the use the text tool, Muse freezes.

Photoshop CC and Photoshop 6 Freezing/Hanging

Ok so I have read many threads on this topic and none have been an answer to my problem.
This happens on MacPro with 2 x 2.4Ghz Quad-Core Intel Xeon with 24GB of 1066 MHZ DDR3 Ram and an 512Gig SSD, freshly formatted and Photoshop CC loaded and running without any other apps. I also use a Wacom Intuos 5 touch M with driver 6.3.6w3. I also have 3 x iMac 27" top current spec SSD and 32Gig Ram and wacom tablets, Intuos 3 and 4.
This problem occurs normally when selecting a brush to work on a layer mask (size of brush not relevant), once the freeze occurs, the cursor can still be moved around however a brush mark isn't registered. To exit this freezed state it is necessary to click on another application (preferably the finder) and return to photoshop in order to snap it back in to action. Sometimes this problem has to be repeated 2 or 3 times. It doesn't appear to make any difference what size the image is. Often if I open up a flat jpg, grab the clone stamp tool and start to work, there are no marks registered. Once the freeze/hang is exited often the previous brush marks appear altogether. This seems to happen all too regularly, maybe every 15 mins or so, but never consistently spaced out
I have tried all of the things below to solve it:-
1. No 3rd party plug ins running.
2. Ample scratch disk space on second internal Sata drive (500Gb)
3. GPU settings changed to Basic
4. I don't have a third button on my pen to turn off
5. Wiped and re-installed OS X 10.8.4, reinstalled photoshop
6. Made history states greater and less
7. Turned Autosave off and save in background
8. Regenerated new Preferences
I have looked into Activity viewer when this happens and nothing seems obviously wrong. Please help as I thought is was a bug in CS6 so upgrading to CC was looking very attractive until the same problem happens here too.
HELP! HELP! HELP!

Curt, I have a ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024 MB in the Mac Pro, the iMac have NVIDIA GeForce GTS 680MX 2048Mb.
Why would it happen on all of these machines though if they have different video cards?
Very Puzzled!

Windows 7 freezes / hangs when playing video or audio on any media player

I've had this issue since installing Windows 7 (32 bit) over 2 months ago and have been actively seeking a fix for the majority of those two months. In windows XP pro (32 bit), I had no issues whatsoever. The problem manifests itself as a complete hang of all system functions and inability to interact with my computer aside from moving the pointer around.
This only occurs when I am playing some sort of media (mp3, avi, mp4, mkv, etc) on any media player that I had installed at the current time of testing (WMP12, VLC, Realplayer). The initial response is a hang of the system which then can become a freeze if I click around too much during the hang. After approximately 3-5 minutes the problem is alleviated and the system plays catchup with the video/audio sync.
Below is a complete rundown on my system and fixes floating from other threads that I have attempted.
My System Spec:
Windows: Windows 7 Ultimate (32 Bit) Version 6.1 Build 7600
Motherboard: Gigabyte Ds4-X48 Crossfire Ready
GPU: ATI Radeon HD 4870 512MB 256Bit DDR5
CPU: E8500 Wolfdale (3.16) Core2Duo
Ram: 4GB ( 2x 2GB OCZ Reapers @ PC8500 1066MHZ )
PSU: 600W OCZ GameXStream
HDD - Primary - 1.5TB Seagate
HDD - STORAGE - 1.5TB Seagate + 500GB Western Digital
Audio - Integrated Realtek
Drive Bays: SATA Combo Drive (Samsung) + IDE Lightscribe DVD-MultiRecorder RW
As you can see, my system is more than capable of running Windows 7 and probably just as qualified to captain a space shuttle.
Things I have tried to no avail
- Changing the Power Plan
- Adjusting the overclock of my GPU to factory defaults
- disabling Media Player Network Sharing in services.msc
- Only having WMP12 installed
- Shark007 Codec Pack
-Not having Shark007 Codec Pack
- Undergrading WMP12 to WMP11
- CLEAN BOOT - Freezes/hangs still occured regardless.
- Registry optimization and cleaning
- Playing video after fresh install still causes freezes
- SQMClient/MachineThrottling IS NOT THERE TO BE DISABLED OR DELETED
- Adjusting RAM timing,frequency and voltage in BIOS
- Use Display driver provided by Windows Update for ATI Radeon HD 4870
- Tested several other Catalyst and Display drivers
- Updated Chipset , Audio Driver, Network Driver
- Clean installed 4+ times ( I clean installed inbetween all of the previous attempts listed above)
- Uninstalling programs such as AIM, MSN Messenger, Adobe products, Daemon Tools Lite, Adobe Flash Player 10 ActiveX
-My computer is not eligible for the Intel Matrix Storage update
-Disabling aero
I am now starting to suspect maybe Company of Heroes may be an issue as it is Divx endorsed.
I froze once while typing this up due to wmp12 playing a mp4 music video in the background.
Can anyone recommend a good skin and theme that will make Windows XP look like 7? I'm starting to think that it's my only solution.

Hi,
Thank you for your posting.
As for this system freezing issue, we generally need to analyze the performance monitor logs and memory dump files to locate the root cause. Unfortunately, debugging is beyond what we can do in the forum because of the nature of forum support. A support call to our product service team is needed for the debugging service. I'd like to recommend that you contact Microsoft Customer Support Service (CSS) for assistance so that this problem can be resolved efficiently. To obtain the phone numbers for specific technology request please take a look at the web site listed below:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=fh;EN-US;PHONENUMBERS
If you are outside the US please see http://support.microsoft.com for regional support phone numbers.
Having said that, I'd still like to provide the following general troubleshooting steps to see if we can eliminate this problem:
Note: Please perform a complete system backup first. If any unexpected issue occurs, we can quickly restore the system to the current status.
1.    Scan your system to make sure that the system is virus free. Temporarily disable your anti-virus software to see if this problem is gone.
2.    If you have recently installed any software, hardware or drivers, please remove them.
3.    Run Process Explorer to check which processes are using a lot of memories or cause high CPU utilization:
Process Explorer
4.    If the process is a service, you can use these steps to find out what applications are using most of the CPU: Open Task Manager, click on the Processes tab, look for the process that is using the CPU and note its PID (Process ID). Note that you may need to go to the View/Select Columns menu and make sure that PID (Process Identifier) is checked.
Once you have the PID run the following from a command prompt:
tasklist /svc
This should give you the application associated with the PID you identified in the previous step.
However, if the issue still persists, please contact Microsoft Customer Support Service (CSS) for further troubleshooting. I hope the problem will be resolved soon. Thanks!

LabVIEW 6.1 Freeze / Hang – Related to User Interaction / Potentially File I/O

Hi Everyone
As you can see by the title, we are using an archaic version of LabVIEW. This will not change, as the system has been running since 6.1 was new, and it is our philosophy not to touch a running system.
The thing is that it isn’t a running system anymore. Or should I say it’s never been perfect, only that we didn’t notice. Anyhow… Here comes what this is about:
We use LV in a jet engine test environment. Now, a normal engine test would take something like an hour or maybe a maximum of two, depending on the applicable test procedures. This time frame used to cover the majority of tests and we had no problems whatsoever. Recently though, we had an accumulation of engines that caused problems and therefore the tests started taking longer and longer, up to four or even five hours. And that is when the problems started…
LabVIEW would run just like it should, until after a long time it would suddenly freeze / hang upon user interaction. It looks like this could be related to some file i/o, like writing test results to an excel file or alike (“Save”), but I cannot rule out 100% that this impression is wrong. The data, however, will never be saved to the file in cases of a freeze / hang.
To test it and see what happens, we had let the application run over night and write some data and a time stamp to a text file, so we could see if and when it would hang. Nothing happened, obviously because there was no user interaction.
It may be handy to know that we are running LV on a Windows XP SP3, 32Bit system. The O/S doesn’t hang / freeze and everything else carries on working just like it should, it’s only the LabVIEW application as such that hangs (all of it, not individual *.vi’s or loops). Normally, after several minutes the application is back, but TCP and *.xls ActiveX references (refnum, in a global variable) are closed, and need to be re-established manually.
I know this information is very vague and you may need more input to be able to help. Yet it is a starting point.
Thanks for feedback!

Really hard to even begin to diagnose the problem with this data. You mentioned that your wrote to a text file with a time stamp, so I'm assuming from this that the program can be modified (just not upgraded to a newer version)? If so there is a diagnostice utility in the Windows kernel32.dll that might help, if used properly it shows "stuff" going on in your code and in the Windows environment. What we do here is create a little sub-vi that will write a string to the Windows debug "file", and salt these throughout our code, showing when commands are issued, threads are shut-down, etc. Using a free download utility from MicroSoft called dbgVIEW we open a monitoring window behind our code and watch what is happening. It is particularly useful if you are running your application as a exe as it can give you a view into the inner workings without the overhead of writing to a file, etc.

Fixed my SL freezes, hanging, beachball

After migrating from Leopard to Snow Leopard (10.6.2) about a month ago, I experienced a constant issue with hanging applications, sporadic freezes with a variety of applications.
I have gone through all the suggestions posted wrt to this issue and for me the following fix worked (so far...) rather perfect. My systems now runs as stable as it did using Leopard. Reinstalling, PRAMMING, VRAMMING, CleanUps, DiskUtility check, S.M.A.R.T. status checks & eventually just using TimeMachine restore did not solve my freeze/hanging/beachball issue
_My solution_: go to ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
and put all the plugins you see there into a custom folder (I named mine SwitchedOff). Now move all the plugins to that folder and reboot. Well: now your browsers are decapitated, so I moved
Flash Player.plugin
flashplayer.xpt &
Silverlight.plugin
back into ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
and restarted the browsers. (now enabling flash & silverlight video options)
Result: no more sporadic freezes, hangs, 30-60 secs. beachball phenomena and basically a stable steady OS I was used too.
FYI: I have not tested moving back the other Plugins into my ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/SwitchedOff folder. They now contain:
DivXBrowserPlugin.plugin
Flip4Mac WMV Plugin.plugin
Flip4Mac WMV Plugin.webplugin
Googletalkbrowser.plugin
iPhotoPhotocast.plugin
JavaPluginCocoa.bundle (an alias)
NP-PPC-Dir-Shockwave
npdivx.xpt
nsIQTScriptablePlugin.xpt
Quartz Composer.webplugin
QuickTime Plugin.plugin
XStandard.plugin
I will do some testing if re-adding these plugins recreate the freezes etc. but for now this solution works for me and will enjoy a freeze-less OS for now.

You're correct. BTW, these are installed on my SL machines and have never caused any issues for a year and a half (beta-tested SL):
DirectorShockwave.plugin
DivXBrowserPlugin.plugin
DRM Plugin.bundle
Flash Player.plugin
flashplayer.xpt
Flip4Mac WMV Plugin.plugin
Flip4Mac WMV Plugin.webplugin
Google Earth Web Plug-in.plugin
Installer Log File
iPhotoPhotocast.plugin
ipxBrowserPlugin
JavaPlugin2_NPAPI.plugin
JavaPluginCocoa.bundle
npdivx.xpt

Is there a way to put performance counters on excel and see what is going on ?
Thanks

I am having the same problem:
let me share my answers to your questions:
Where did the member use the Excel file? Local disk, SharePoint, File server, or network shared disk?
LOCAL DISK
Does the issue occur in the special file or every file?
NO HAPPENS IN ANY FILE, EVEN A BLANK NEW FILE
Which Office version is the file created? Excel 2013 or early? If it is XLS format, please try to convert to XLSX to test.
NOT APPLICABLE. BOTH.
Does the file have some macros?
NO
Does the issue occur recently? If it is, have you installed some programs or update before you encountered it?
THE NEW 2013 EXCEL IS NEW AND NEVER WORKED WELL
Do you get some error message when Excel crashed?
NO. IT FREEZES FOR A MINUTE. THE NAME OF THE FILE BLINKS AT THE TOP AND THAN I GET ACESS TO THE FILE AGAIN. IF I NAVIGATE WITHOUT THE MOUSE NO ERROR OCOUR

Freezing/hanging when taking pictures and videos in i phone 4

freezing/hanging when taking pictures and videos in i phone 4 with flash on.

Hi Mister.
Let's try to answer your questions.
- The E5 does not have a red light when you take pictures.
- I don't know about battery life comparing with E6 and E72, just can say on the E5 is quite good. It has a 1200 mAh battery, you should check the others, but also the features of each one, i.e. the E6 is a touchscreen one, so it consumes more power.
- It has a notification white light, around the navigation button.
Regards.

ITunes 10.4.1 freeze (hang) when webradio stream drop out for any reason.

Hello,
My iTunes freeze (hang) when any webradio stream drop out for any reason; e.g. when ISP renews the IP, the radio station has limited the stream duration (as some do) per connection or wireless is cut off e.g. by closing the lid of the MacBook.
I've to force Quit then iTunes. If I wait (up to an hour for testing) no hung or crash report get generated, iTunes still stay unresponsive.
System: MacBook Pro 2011
OS: OS X 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard)
iTunes version: 10.4.1 (10)
iTunes 3rd Party add-on's: None
Any ideas out there?
Cheers - Lupunus

I will commiserate. I have this same issue. In some cases, the stream will stop and restart after 15-30 seconds; repeat. In other cases, the stream will stop, and iTunes will switch to the last radio station in that playlist. Then that station will play for a few minutes, and stop, and sometimes restart. But usually iTunes will hang (spinning beach ball) and must be force-quit.

Who do I stop the freezing hang-up or crashing,it happens daily while playing in FB.

In the last few weeks firefox keeps freezing, hanging up or crashing on me mostly while playing on FB. It will not let me close the page or get out of firefox. After I get it to close & I try to restart it ,it can take anywhere from 2-10 min. before it will reload. Ever at times; when I start up the computer, it can take 10/15min after I try to open firefox, for it to show up. I got a message the other day saying," skype was a malware & creating the problem" should I uninstall skype & reinstall it ? frankly I'm getting pretty much ticked off with this problem, & the meassage from firefox saying"well, this is embarassing" is not helping

This forum is for Firefox support. Since you say that Firefox is working but you are are having problems with installing or using other browsers (e.g. Chrome and Opera) your question is off-topic for this forum.
If you haven't had any success on those browser help forums, you could try a Windows forum, for example,
* answers.microsoft.com (Microsoft Community forums)
* sevenforums.com (Windows 7 Forums)
* windowsbbs.com
You could also try one of the Adobe forums at forums.adobe.com if you think your issue with other browsers is related to an Adobe product.

Muse Freezes - Program Conflicts?

Hi,
This is partially a question, but also a story about an issue I had and how I came across a solution in case anyone should happen to be in a similar situation:
I'm running the latest version of Muse with the latest version of AIR on Windows 8.1, and everything had been working fine with it until this morning. I wasn't sure what might have been causing the problem, but the problem was that I was unable to place any kind of image, regardless of file type. When I clicked on the "Place" or "Place Photoshop Button" commands, Muse would just freeze and become unresponsive, yet the program window wouldn't fade (as would be typical with an unresponsive program in Windows), and I received no error message within Muse. When I click "Save As," the Save window starts to appear and then freezes halfway through loading (this fades and gives the prompt that Muse is not responding). I tried uninstalling AIR, and installing version 3.9, but this didn't work. I tried uninstalling the Lenovo Solution Center, which also requires AIR to run (and seemingly caused no issues with Muse previously)...no luck. Uninstalling and reinstalling Muse gave me no success. It had been a few days since I had used the program last (it was working fine this past Sunday). The only other programs I had installed between then and now were the EFI Fiery tools for my laptop to be able to use one of the printers at my job, and the latest Photoshop 14.2.1 update that was available this morning. I was able to save existing files so long as I did not press "Save As," and I could drag and drop images onto the website workspace, but this was of little help when trying to put in a PSD button. The problem came up regardless of whether I was working on an existing Muse project or starting a new file.
When I uninstalled the EFI Fiery tools and associated programs, removed the office Fiery printer from my printer list (it's a Xerox Color 560), restarted my computer, and started Muse, everything worked properly again with no issues. There must have been some sort of conflict between Muse and the Fiery tools or the printer, but I can't fathom what that could possibly be. I can live without having the tools on my laptop, since they're also on my workstation at the office, but it was purely a matter of convenience, since there are some things I'll work on at home and then send to print from the laptop.
Is this a known conflict, and are there any other program conflicts with Muse that we should be aware of?

I think I've isolated the problem to text editing: Muse freezes when editing text. I can perform other functions, such as placing graphics, but when I try the use the text tool, Muse freezes.

Windows Premier pro CS5 Program monitor freezes/hangs when video on sequence bar is playing

Hope someone can help me on this ! Appreciate it.!
This is a complete new system.
The specification as follows: INTEL(R) CORE(TM) i7CPU950@ 3.07GHz 3.56GHz
installed 12.0GB RAM
System at 64bit
Display driver using NVIDIA GeForce GTX 470.

Hi Dennis,
Thanks for the reply. I have updated the graphics driver on Nvidia website as well.It still does not work.
Under project settings: Video rendering and playback, i have both mercury playback engine GPU accelerator and mercury playback engine softway only. it is currently set as mercury playback engine GPU accelerator.

Firefox 3.6 freezing / hanging most of the time. All add-ons disabled. Cache and cookies cleared. Help!

Firefox 3.6 freezing / hanging most of the time. All add-ons disabled. Cache and cookies cleared. Help!
Examples: Freezes for about 20 seconds every launch. Freezes quiting. Freezes switching tabs. Freezes clicking links.

Note that such issues can be caused by security software that blocks Firefox and possibly isn't initialized when you get (got) this issue.
So if it happens again then try to remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

I have two intel-era Mac Pros. One at work, another at home. Two months ago both started having same mix of freezes/hangs

I own two Intel-era Mac Pros, one at work, the other at home office. A couple months ago both started having the same problem: a mix of freezes/hangs and weird graphical artifacts showing up on the screens. Usually I need to reboot. Usually a reboot fixes the problem for a while until it recurs. If it was just one computer, I'd figure disk problem or graphics card. But the fact that both have been affected at the same time makes me suspect some software issue or possibly a trojan/virus. Has anyone seen something like this? Or have any advice?

The OS is still @ 10.4.8?
FBDIMMs tend to fail over time due to heat stress and more so if not kept cooler than 70*C
Helps to run SmcFanControl @ 900 rpm - esp in warmer weather
Monitor the system with Hardware Monitor, it is more accurate and thorough though not as "cute" as some.
Both have OEM 7300GT or X1900, which requires constant cleaning of dust.
We aren't mind readers so if you want, then add more details, the System Profile but w/o the serial number.
Maybe you install the same updates and programs and that is why.
Yes you could do a clean install on a fresh drive.
Maybe your drives are years old - and it never hurt to clone the system regularly for backup and maintenance, run Disk Warrior instead or in addition to Disk Utility. And take advantage of new faster drives.
No it may not be Flash based malware but then Apple isn't supporting pre-Snow Leopard as much if at all. They did offer a limited fix for recent malware.
