MY MOUSE AND TYPING FREEZE FOR ABOUT 5 SECONDS

I cannot move my mouse or type for mare than 1 or 2 seconds and it freezes for 5-10 seconds and then I can only move it again for 1 or 2 seconds. This is constant. I have run updates and repaired permissions. Still same problem. I am on an iMac 11.1, Intel Core i7

Odds are only someone that develops apps for iOS would have access to whatever this is and, even then, this information may still not be available.
I would do a backup of your phone & then erase it and restore from the backup to see if the odd behavior goes away. If so, something went funny with your update the first time around. If not, there's something in your backup that's making the phone throw a fit.
I resolved my battery issues (more or less) by disabling the "set date/time automatically" setting. I haven't re-enabled it yet but my battery life has been much better with it off.

Mouse and typing freeze from wakeup

I think the efi update actually made my computer worse instead of better. When I open the computer back up it will wake up but I cant move the mouse for a few seconds and if I type it will lag for a few seconds. What I mean by lag is if i start typing, it will show up after 2 seconds or so. Anybody else have this issue? It's really annoying since they say one main feature is the "instant on".....no point if you have to wait.

Is this after sleeping for more than 70 minutes? If so, the MBA is loading from disk (deep sleep), and it will take a few seconds to load.
and if I type it will lag for a few seconds. What I mean by lag is if i start typing, it will show up after 2 seconds or so.
Does this continue after the initial delay from sleep?

The browser freezes for a second while playing Zuma Blitz and Bejeweled Blitz on Facebook. It also freezes for a second while typing. What's going on?

During gameplay on Facebook it falls under Adobe Flash. If I "END" the plugin-container.exe the game crashes and have to refersh the page, in which case the plugin starts all over again. There seems to be no way to play without this process running. My typing is also freezing for a second before it catches up to my fingers. This has been happening for about two weeks. I never had this problem playing these games before.
My OS is Windows Vista and I'm running Firefox version 3.6.13

Update: Firefoxe's best browser was version ~2.2.21!
Ever since then, the user experience has been less and less. Slower browser, feats most users don't use (like skins)... really.. I'm a bit disappointed at the (negative) progress of late.

Firefox v15 and up cause my computer (MAC OSX 10.8.2) to freeze for about 30 seconds every 15-30 seconds and forces me to turn it off with the power button

Firefox v15 and up cause my computer (MAC OSX 10.8.2) to freeze for about 30 seconds every 15-30 seconds and forces me to turn it off with the power button. It only causes this after I have opened Firefox, my computer runs fine before opening Firefox. I have uninstalled Firefox and cleared my personal settings. I have installed future updates (16 and 17) and have run into the same issue. I cannot pull any information on RAM or CPU usage because when it happens it makes my computer unusable. Unfortunately I need to use FF for work and can't. I have tried the different responses on the forums to reduce the amount of RAM and CPU usage with no change in performance.

What could this be? Cursor freezes for about a second

Sometimes, the cursor freezes for about a second. It does not move on the screen. I checked the log files, but I cannot seem to find any trace of it.
Has anyone else seen this? It does not happen a lot, it happens occasionally.
I have seen it happen in Safari the most, but that is the app that I use the most anyway.

Thanks for suggesting we turn off the "accidental input" option. It's a shame we have to live with the alternative - accidental input - which happens to me fairly frequently when I'm typing. But the mouse freezing was driving me insane.
I found that it was very easy to reproduce. Simple go to a webpage, scroll down the page with the down arrow key, so the mouse disappears on-screen, then try to use the trackpage to move the mouse - it doesn't appear immediately. For me, it takes 1-3 seconds - which feels like forever.

When I use Firefox and Hotmail at startup, Firefox freezes for about 1 minute, and then I can continue. First I though it was my computer but 2 other girls in my class have the same problem with Hotmail and Firefox. What can I do to change this?

When I start Firefox, about 15 seconds after I start it, my Firefox freezes for about 1 minute. I found out that it is my Hotmail that makes Firefox freeze.
First I thought it was my computer, but I have 2 other girls in my class that use Hotmail and Firefox and their computer also freezes for 1 full minute.
This is very annoying, what can I do to change this?

p.s. I am from the Netherlands, maybe that has something to do with it?

Final Cut Pro 7 Frame freezing and dropping frames for 3 seconds...

So, I'm creating a video which leads up to .png files being on screen for 00:00:00:20 and 00:00:00:10. When it hits that first frame of 00:00:00:20, it freezes for 3 seconds, misses out the rest of the frames before continues. What puzzles me is that in the playback window in FCP, it plays exactly how it should but when rendering out into "Apple ProRes 422 (HQ) 1920x1084 60i 48 kHz .mov" format, it plays like this...
It leads me to believe that the frames per second need to be upped but not a cut how to do this on FCP. If this is not the reason for this problem, I'd love to hear from you!
Thanks in advanced!

I feel that this is your problem. Editing from a network drive is not particularly ideal as there are quite a few overheads when it comes to data transfer. Bear in mind that in a properly set up network users have a restricted amount of bandwidth to 'play" with so as to minimise horrendous bottlenecks and complaints. Additionally having only 1.9 to 2 GB of free space is a recipe for disaster. The drive could fail miserably and as a result you could lose your work. One thing that is useful to know about conventional drives is that their speed drops dramatically as you fill them up, up to the point that they crawl. I suggest you move your work into a local drive, that is one connected to the computer you use, with ample space to space (filled way below 50% of its capacity). In fact, fcp capture scratch, render and media folders should be there.
Good luck

AR8 freezes for about 40 seconds after start

Hi,
I use SuSE Linux 10.0 on a Thinkpad R51 and I installed the 8.1.1 enu rpm version of adobe reader and I use a dual head xinerama display.
Biggest problem:
Adobe Reader starts up normally and for about 2 secs, it can be used normally. Then, it freezes for about 40 seconds. Nothing is possible in this time. Afterwards, a normal use is possible.
Minor problem:
Everytime I open a PDF document with the Firefox plugin (FF 2.0.0.6), the plugin seems to be loaded and initialised again. This is very time consuming. In AR7, one had to wait for plugin initialisation only when opening the first pdf document.
Is there a plan to fix these issues? Otherwise, I will downgrade to AR 7.0.
Thanks,
Al

Hi Al,
Could you answer the following questions in regards to your problem, for us to better understand the problem scenarios -
Regarding your first problem ---
1. The freeze after launch is happening on "every" launch of the reader, or is it occassional?
2. When the reader window is hung, do you see any sort of progress bar or alert on the screen?
3. If you try to launch the the reader from the terminal, do you see any alert/warnings on the console while the reader is hung?
There is also a small exercise we would like you to do, in order to verify a known issue (you would need 'root' access to do the following) -
* Temporarily rename the folder "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts" (the font folder under /usr/X11R6) to something else (say "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts_dummy").
* Restart acroread a couple of times.
Do you still see the problem of the application getting hung? Please do let us know your observations. Also don't forget to restore the name of the folder "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts" back to its original name.
Regarding your second problem ----
The behaviour is basically due to the browser's handling of external plugins. In Reader 7.0 due to some issues, we sometimes missed indicating to the browser that our work was done, and that is why an instance of the plugin persisted.
This was however corrected and in Reader 8 we now correctly tell the browser when the PDF file is closed. It is at this point that the browser should decide whether to keep the plugin loaded or to close and unload it. And it seems that at present Firefox immediately unloads us after the last document is closed.
Anyway thanks for pointing out the problem. We'll take note of it and try to find a workaround to improve the performance in the future release.
Regards
Salil

NI Traktor software - Audio freezes for about half second because of Dual Core

Hello,
I've been testing out Native Instruments Traktor DJ Studio 3 and very frequently, the audio and timeline would freeze for about half a second and the continue playing. I also have a good low-latency PCI-card soundcard, so that's not causing these pauses.
I've managed to get rid of this problem by turning off the second processor core in the BIOS setup. However, I don't like the fact that I'll have to do that every time I use Traktor.
Is this a software or hardware issue? Software that doesn't use both cores should be able to run without problems, but apparently, there are some interrupts happening that prevent some programs from running smoothly.
That's why I'm posting here instead of the NI forums.

Hi
It is very nice to make other users to be attentive to this issue but in my opinion it is definitely wrong place. There are much bigger chances that software producer tests own products on different units and hardware configurations than hardware manufacturers.
Usually, the notebook manufacturers are responsible for OS stability and functionality of every delivered hardware component but not for functionality on third part software.
Because of that, try to pick up some info from Native-instruments. If you will find some useful info please let us know. The dual-core units are new on the market and like you can see there are first problems. Every useful info is welcome.
Good luck!

Qosmio F60- Randomly freezes for about one second

Hi,
I have a qosmio F60, and recently i've been having random freezes even while typing atm.
So, my notebook freezes for a second every now and then and it's getting really annoying. It does so no matter what i'm doing...
I restored the pc to factory settings and updated all the drivers but still i get this annoying problem...
Any help would be appreciated.
I figured the problem is a *SUDDEN FPS DROP*...save me -.- pls

Hmmm..... why to update ALL drivers if you dont know why this happen?
You must restore notebook to factory settings, open notepad and test it. can you confirm that this happen immediately after notebook restore to factory settings?
It is not easy to assist with such issues. We dont know which stuff is installed on your notebook, which additional (third part software) applications are installed, which background processes are active, how your OS is configured and so on.
In my opinion some background activity is responsible for this. it can be Microsoft updates installation if you have set it to option automatically. It can also be some antivirus scanning activities. Who knows?
Try to change OS settings and OS configuration.

Since loading Itunes update my Itunes takes about 3 to 4 minutes to load and then when it loads it freezes for about 3 minutes and then unfreezes. This happens with every restart. I've have deleted and reload four times but still get the same results. t

Question: I've have upadated to the latest Itunes software but since doing so I've have had nothing but problems and yes
I have unloaded and reloaded at least 4 times. Now when I try to open Itunes using the short cut on the desk top it takes about 4 minutes or longer for the Itunes to start and then it freezes for about another 2 to 3 mintues and then starts. This happen everytime I try to open Itunes now. I even deleted Itunes from my hard drive and put it on my SSD to see if it would work and still nothing. I've always been pretty good at sloving my problems. But this one has me stumped. Is there anyone who as had this problem that would be willing to help me out. Router25. P.S. It only happen with this one application of software. Everything else loads up fast. This comput is about 1-1/2 years old. Most people would love to have this computer. 9 out of 10. Please help me someone. I ready have a grey beard and it getting grayer.

Restore from backup. If the issue continues, restore as new.
