Pages Freezes On Scrolling

This on the Intel MacMini (2009)
When quickly scrolling through documents with more than a few pages, Pages simply freezes up. Scrolling halts and menu items become unresponsive. The only way to bring Pages back to life is to click on the desktop or another application's window and then click on the Pages window. This is extremely annoying.
However, this only seems to happen when another user is logged on via Fast User Switching.
This problem does not happen with Open Office, Neo Office or Text Edit when editing the very same documents.
Is Pages somehow not compatible with Fast User Switching?

I should add that when Pages freezes the system.log contains items like this:
Jul 8 08:21:33 Bleach /usr/sbin/spindump[1452]: process 716 is being monitored
Jul 8 08:21:57 Bleach /usr/sbin/spindump[1452]: process 716 is being no longer being monitored
Jul 8 08:22:49 Bleach /usr/sbin/spindump[1458]: process 716 is being monitored

Jul 8 08:35:17 Bleach /usr/sbin/spindump[1608]: process 716 is being no longer being monitored
Process #716 is Pages.

Forms freezes when scroll down datablock

Hi,
I don't know if the following issue should be posted here. If not, please redirect me to the right forum.
When a user scrolls down a datablock (with more than 100 rows), the page freezes and won't respond to any other mouse event. The cursor shows the "busy" symbol. The only thing we can do is to close the applet and the browser. This phenomenon cannot be reproduced. It's arbitrary.
We have oracle application server 10.1.2 with SSL. The datablocks of the forms have the following settings: QUERY_ALL_RECORDS = No, Number of records buffered = 0. The forms are developed under oracle forms 6i and compiled using oracle forms 10g client R2 builder.
We've searched for this known issue and got some results about patches to apply on forms 10g (9.0.4). Are there any similar patches for Oracle forms 10g R2?
If not, how to resolve this freezing issue?
Thanks in advance
Rgds

There was a known issue which caused scrolling to the last record to result in a hang and/or form crash. This issue has been corrected. However, there is no way of actually knowing if this is the same as what you are experiencing. Just because the symptoms of what you describe may be similar to what I described does not necessarily mean the root cause is/was the same.
I would recommend that you are running the latest of all related software. Here are the details related to patches. They should be applied in this order.
1. Patch 10.1.2.3 (released March 2008) Same patch for both iAS and iDS
..... Patch ID 5983622
2. Forms Recommend Patch
..... Patch ID 9282569
3. If you use Jinitiator, the latest version is 1.3.1.30
..... Patch ID 7410076
If you use Sun JRE, the latest is 1.6.0_20 and can be downloaded from here:

Safari Full Screen Page Displacement Issue, Scrolling Artefact.

Hi, there
I really want to make Safari my default browser, it seems like nearly the perfect balance between Firefox and Chrome. I have had a few issues with Safari, though. Once I upgraded to Lion, I decided to give Safari another try. It was very unstable and had weird graphical artefacts when scrolling (ie, the text would sort of copy down the page as I scrolled up.) I decided to switch back to Firefox/Aurora, but recently I chose to give Safari another shot seeing as there had been many software updates for Lion. Anyway, I found that after installing certain extensions, I had the weird scrolling artefact come back. So I've removed the offending extensions, and now that issue seems to be fixed.
I have this other weird issue where for what ever reason, whether it's when I switch tabs or spaces (I'm unsure), the pages I've loaded in tabs will scroll up about 30 pixels (the height of the horizontal tab bar), and I can't scroll up any further. That means that it cuts off 30px of the header on YouTube and various other websites. The only way to fix/correctly re-align the pages, is to hit refresh or exit/re-enter full screen mode. I just find this annoying, it only happens in full screen mode.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Pages freezing up

Hi,
I create documents in pages Layouts with many images. I have had on-going problems with the pages freezing up and not being able to manipulate images or move around the document. Ball starts spinning and application can not keep up with commands. I have been instructed to re-install my operating system twice now by apple (which allowed pages to work for a few weeks then back to same problem). I have been on the phone countless hours with techs taking me through various hopeful fixes. Still doesn't work. I have removed pages 09, and Apple sent me new Iworks 09 software. The problem is worse. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY CLUE AS TO FIXING THIS PROBLEM?
Thanks!

Hi,
Thanks for the welcome!
The images I use are normally jpegs that I either copy/paste or drag into pages. the images are normally 1-2 mb in size.
Large numbers take up resources. Depending on compression method, 1-2mb could be large files. The final size needs to be 300dpi and no more.
Sometimes smaller. I usually just mask the images and I do use Alpha to take backgrounds out.
Alpha masked images will especially tax the system. Better to prepare images "deep etched" ie background removed in Photoshop or the like.
I add text boxes to the pages with limited text. Apple has said that Pages should be able to handle docs that have higher mbs and that I should not be having this issue. But I agree it has to do with the images. I am now breaking up and doing single pages but even then it is freezing up. It is odd but I find that the problems get gradually worse. I can create a page with images and manipulate it just fine and then 2 weeks later open the same page and nothing responds. Very frustrating. I am now told by apple that I need more RAM but the fact that I sent a 7 mb doc to a MACPRO user with much more power and she had the exact same issue makes me question that.
Thoughts? I am brain dead from this.

When i first open firefox homepage (opens with google) after 3 seconds page freezes and cannoct be closed. i have to open seconed homepage to shot pc down. this has only happened since i installed firfox 4. what do i do to fix this

when i first open firefox homepage (opens with google as set by firefox) after about 3 seconds the page freezes and cannot be closed or minimised. i have to open second homepage to shut pc down or continue to use pc. this has only happened since i installed firefox 4. what do i do to fix this

I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

Anyone know how to export a PDF from InDesign so it is "click to go to next page" instead of "scroll to go to next page"?

Anyone know how to export a PDF from InDesign so it is "click to go to next page" instead of "scroll to go to next page"?

I don't use the latest InDesign, but in the past ID's options for exporting to PDF did not allow setting how a PDF should be viewed once exported. However, these settings can be adjusted in Acrobat through Preferences: check out Page Layout and Zoom under Page Display.

PDF opens fine, but when I try to page down or scroll down with the mouse, it hangs the file

Pdf files open fine in Acrobat 9 pro. I am having problems in page down or scroll down on the document. Only way to close the file is to go to task manager and end the program. In task manager it shows that there are 2 adobe acrobat files opened and not responding. What can I check or do about it? I have tried to disable all plug-ins, but that didn't help.

HTML Page has no scroll bar

I made my template size of 1024 x 768, when I open this page
in my browser, and shrink the browser window so its not full size
there are no scroll bars on the page to allow scrolling to see the
all the info on the page.
what am I not doing correctly ?

Dominic,
No, you don't have to open them in any application to be able to scroll. Better yet, the ability to preview them at their native size (instead of the tiny one-size-for-all) is now at your finger-tips.
It's called Quicklook, and no, you don't need to be in Coverflow view. Simply select the movie, then press your spacebar

HT1694 My hotmail access disappeared from my iPad. When I go to settings and click 'mail, contacts, calendars' the page freezes. It doesn't allow me to the account setting. Anyone have suggestions?

Your Settings app is crashing. Sometimes, the only way to fix this is by restoring the iOS software but hopefully it will not come to that.
1. Quit the app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
2. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
3. You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.

Google Docs page freezes in FF 4.0 and 3.16 versions and it doesn't show the collection or folder names on the left side of the page .

Google Docs page freezes and it shows the files in the main page. However, it doesn't show the collection or folder on the left side of the page. It shows "Loading" on top of the page and it stays with "Loading" display forever. Chrome doesn;t have any such problem. I would like to use FF for google docs if it works. This happened only after I changed to FF 4.0. Now, I went back to 3.16 and it shows the same behavior as 4.0 version. Any help will be appreciated.

I'm replying to my own question in hopes that it'll push my post to the top of any lists to garner some sort of response.
Any help is most appreciated. Thank you.

Freehand page will not scroll

Iphone 4s wifi disconnects randomly and setting page freezes when trying to enter wifi networks

After the Ios 7.0.3 update, this started happening. I'm using wifi then suddenly it disconnects from it, and when I go to scan for wifi, the setting page freezes upon touching the wifi network and it crashes. and when It doesn't lfreeze, I can't see any wifi network although the router is within 5 feet from my location. after some time the wifi comes back again for 10 minutes and then it does the same thing.

Go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings, then try joining again and you should get the password prompt.

Remote console session freezes when scrolling

My host: Laptop running Windows XP SP3.
Guest: Windows 2008 R2, physically on a USB hard drive.
My VMware server version is 2.0.2.
I have ongoing problems with the host session freezing up. I have had this problem intermittently while working in MMC on the guest, or consistently in MS Excel 2008 on the guest. Because I can consistently reproduce the problem in Excel, I'll focus on it. The session will freze simply by selecting a cell, and then dragging down to select multiple rows of cells. If I exceed the number of rows visible, the Excel session should scroll down. Instead, the entire session becomes unresponsive. I can not move the mouse pointer or switch or any other applications in the remote session. My only option is to shut down the virtual machine and restart it.
I have also had the same problem when navigating MMC. The entire session will sometimes freeze after I click the plus sign to open up an item. In this case, I have not yet identified under what circumstances the "freezing" occurs.

I am experiencing what I think is the same issue. However, my vmware tools (seem) up to date (declared version is 7.7.6, update option is inactive), and there is no svga driver under c:\program files\common files\vmware\drivers (there is one in c:\program files\vmware\vmwaretools\drivers\video though).
The VM freezes after scrolling up/down in notepad++ , exact conditions are hard to define, but usually after 2 minutes of editing a text file a freeze is guaranteed. Only way to recover is a reboot of the VM (a shutdown never completes). Help appreciated.

Pages freezes

Before I start, thanks to everybody here - this forum is very helpful. Have found many answers.
However, no I am stucked. I have found other topics talking about it but none helped. So that is the story:
Pages freezes the whole iMac Core Duo. Nothing works anymore - not even the keyboard combination of force quit. This is very frustrating and it happens a lot. Unfortunately can I not figure out when and why, seems to be totally random. There is no crash log or at least I can not find it using console
Hope somebody can help me out

Sounds like it might be the lookupd daemon bug:
The symptoms of this problem are as follows:
Applications (apparently all of them) then to launch, first bouncing in
the dock for up to a minute and then simply having a stationary, inactive
icon in the dock
After that, the system becomes completely unresponsive; switching between
open applications works, but finder functions are unavailable (the dock
doesn't work, menus are inaccessible, force quit key command does not
respond).
You can not log out, restart or shut down.
Eventually, you are left with a spinning cursor and must shut down the
machine using the power button.
These symptoms indicate that a low-level component of Mac OS
X, lookupd, has hung. Since lookupd is used by many other parts of Mac OS
X, it effectively hangs Mac OS X itself.
The Quick Fix
If you find yourself in this situation, the quick fix that has worked for me
has been to disconnect the ethernet cable from the system for about five to
ten seconds and then plug it back in. You may also have luck turning off the
hub, router or access point for five to ten seconds and then turning it back
on. This forces the system to kill and restart lookupd, thereby freeing up
Mac OS X, until the next time it hangs...
If you're accessing the net at all (which, if you're on broadband, your mac is doing most of the time), lookupd will eventually hang, freezing the OS.
More info here: http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20050921061826456
There's a fixit, which polls lookupd and restarts it if hung, available here:
