Painfully Slow

This isn't just an InDesign issue, but I wasn't sure where to go, and since InDesign is my most used application I thought I'd start here. The same applies to my entire CS3 suite. I am running a new 21.5" iMac 3.06 GHz with 4GB memory on Snow Leopard 10.6.1 (yuck -- could be the culprit -- although the finder & iMac apps seem quite zippy). Everything I do in InDesign is incredibly slow. Nearly every action is preceded with a momentary spinning of the beach ball (sometimes fairly lengthly) before it catches up. If I apply a simple color from the swatch palette to a basic object or apply a different font (or just about anything) I have to wait and watch the beach ball until it catches. The same applies in Photoshop and to a lesser degree in Illustrator.
Any ideas?

Right now i have a tap inbetween one of our users and the rest of the network, granted it's only running at 100mbs, instead of a full gig, but i have an optivew on the other side of the tap so we can pull packet caputres from it. When i did this last week, looking at the captures i dident see anything out of the ordinary. Time deltas all looked good, in the milli and micro seconds, dident see any errors, FCSs, retransmissions of any sorts.
Over the weekend we did move them over to a new file server, with Server 2008 running Extreme Z-IP to provide AFS support (since Microsoft no longer supports services for macintosh).
The System Specs are as follows:
MacPro with OSX 10.6.3
2.93 Ghz Quad Core Intel Xeon Proc
8GB of DDR3 ECC RAM
Nvidia GeForce GT120 with 512 MB ram
Apple Cinema Display, 32 bit at 1680x1050 and Dell 2007 FP 32bit at 1600x1200
Adobe Creative Suite 4, Indesign CS4 version 6.0.5. Has 219 plugins, all the default adobe ones.

  • Mid 2011 Macbook Air Painfully slow.

    Mid 2011 Macbook Air Painfully slow.
    Hey everyone.  I am writing about my 13 inch Mid 2011 Macbook Air. 
    Recently it has been extremely slow and on occasion has not started up.
    I have reset the PRAM and SMC already, yet it is still very slow.  I have a couple theories about what might have caused it, are they plausible?
    Theory 1:  It’s a software problem. I tried to upgrade to 10.8.2 but halfway through the upgrade the computer restarted and somehow I was still on 10.8.1.  For fear of a big issue happening I didn’t try to upgrade again. Perhaps it is a flaw in Apple’s software update? 
    The important thing to note about this update is that I tried to install 10.8.2 around a month or two weeks BEFORE I started having problems.  So if these issues were due to 10.8.2’s failed update then it certainly was a delayed reaction. 
    I would of course like to update to 10.8.2 BUT as my computer is acting EXTREMELY slow and having trouble turning on occasionally I am worried the software update will completely brick the machine.  Is that possible?  Should I actually finish through with the software update?
    Theory 2:  It was an electricity problem. 
    The computer died when I was sitting at a café plugged into their wall sockets.  A few days later when I came back to the same spot with my old macbook which is now being used in lieu of the Air it suddenly turned black for a little while. Sensing it might be an electricity surge or something with their system I unplugged the cable.  I am not sure if that was paranoia though. 
    Can an electricity surge or a bad outlet fry a computer?  Can it fry the ram so the computer is extremely slow? Does that theory hold any water? 
    Thanks for your help diagnosing this problem.
    All the best. 

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac. 
    These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing. 
    Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects. 
    Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands. 
    Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply. 
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways: 
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.) 
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens. 
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid. 
    When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign. 
    Step 1 
    Copy or drag — do not type — the line below into the Terminal window, then press return:
    kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}' 
    Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered (the text, please, not a screenshot.) You can omit the final line ending in “$”. 
    Step 2 
    Repeat with this line:
    sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix)|edu\.mit|org\.(amavis|apache|cups|isc|ntp|postfix|x)/{print $3}' 
    This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning. 
    Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step. 
    Step 3
    launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|edu\.mit|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}' 
    Step 4
    ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null  
    Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting. 
    Step 5
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' 2> /dev/null 
    Remember, steps 1-5 are all drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste, whichever you prefer — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output. 
    You can then quit Terminal.

  • Open and Save dialogs are painfully slow. Is there a solution?

    Open and Save dialogs are painfully slow. Is there a solution?

    I pulled this part out of one of the topics Barney-15E linked to. It absolutely works! The glacially slow Finder response has been driving me batty in Mavericks. Each time I restarted, it would take forever to list the startup drive when I opened it. Open and Save dialogues were also painfully slow to respond. Now they all snap open and list instantly. I used TextWrangler to comment out the line in the file auto_master, then ran the automount command in Terminal.
    Working workaround:
    Use the following statements in Terminal.
    sudo vi /etc/auto_master
    In this file comment out /net with #  (#/net .....)
    sudo automount -vc
    Fixed.
    Confirmed here too both for Preview.app Open file sluggishness and Finder window population. Thanks Snaggletooh_DE!
    Couple of notes:
    (1) Some folks may be more comfortable using a GUI editor like TextWrangler instead of vi
         a) in the Finder use the GO menu and select Go to Folder
         b) type  '/etc' ( without single quotes ) in the Go to folder dialog box and press the Go button
         c) Right ( Control  ) click the auto_master file in the resulting Finder window. Select "Open with...." and use TextWrangler ( your choice )
         d) Comment out the line by inserting a '#' ( pound sign ) as noted in Snaggletooth_DE's instructions
         e) Save the file  ( probably need to authenticate with your admin password  )
         f) Do the 'sudo automount -vc' per Snaggletooth_DE's instructions. Will need to authenticate again.
    (2) Notice Snaggletooth_DE described this as a "workaround" because it bypasses an Apple bug. Presumably most people have not changed their auto_master file and it worked fine in Mountain Lion and prior. In other words: If you haven't done so already, please continue to submit feedback and bug reports to Apple for this issue.
    Kudos to Snaggletooth_DE for figuring out code is trying to look at network ( NFS ) volumes that maybe don't exist.

  • My MacBook Pro is running painfully slow all of a sudden. I am trying to clean up my iPhoto library and it's all of a sudden running really slow. I've uninstalled and disabled as many unnecessary apps as possible as far as I can tell.

    Here is the etrecheck info. Please advise... thank you!
    Problem description:
    iPhoto is running painfully slow. My library is on an external hard drive. It was runing just fine yesterday. i disabled Dropbox and a few other applications, to no avail.

  • Painfully slow wireless connection with Time Capsule

    I have recently bought and changed over my home wireless to a Time Capsule 2TB, which I wanted for both the backup and the ease in home networking. I have set up the wireless network and since day one it has been painfully slow! I have created two wireless networks, one for 2.4GHz and the other for 5GHz. I have been reading all over the web and boards but to no avail.  Any suggestions? I am about to give up on the time capsule completely! I couldn't even download my podcast tonight.
    Help!

    Firstly plug in directly by ethernet to be sure there isn't a network issue on wan side.
    Are you testing on multiple computers .. Mac and/or PC?? Which ones. and what network cards are being used?
    Try and remove anything that uses G wireless and throw away any B wireless. It will not work together with N even if it is an option.
    Turn off the guest network if you have it on.
    Have you used a wireless analyser like kismac or inssider for pc? Find the free channels and set the wireless to that. Use no security at first to test.. briefly.. and then select wpa2 personal. Is there any difference?
    Do you have another wireless router running?? Were you using a different wireless router for comparison?

  • Time capsule painfully slow under windows 7

    I'm using a time capsule (latest gen, 3TB) with both a Mac and a PC. The Mac uses Time Machine to backup and things work great.
    However, on my PC (Windows 7), the TC is mounted as a network mounted (drive Z), and if I simply try to drag and drop files from my PC to the TC, it's painfully slow. At least 10x slower than on the Mac.
    As an example, copying 500MB takes about 10 hours...
    Any suggestions on improving performance using TC on a Windows 7 machine?
    Thanks.

    Download the free  iStumbler  app to examine the strength of your connection.
    If it's not good, look for interference with another wireless device, cordless phone, microwave oven, etc.  Turn them off temporarily;  if you find an offender, move it farther away.  See  AirPort and Bluetooth: Potential sources of wireless interference  for more.
    Try different WIFI channels.

  • Time capsule painfully slow wifi

    New time capsule , painfully slow wifi , cisco works lightning fast so the issue is with the TC. Looked at forums and I see it's a common isssue. Any ideas that actually work?

  • Time Machine backup painfully slow all of a sudden

    For some reason my time machine backups have become painfully slow for some reason. They were fine earlier today, then IIRC I booted windows, then booted back into OSX to run a backup. Despite there being only 1 or two changes (files added to the system) time machine began "preparing backup" by going through all the files on my HDD! Now, it is backing up, but at the rate of about 5 Kb/s!
    Something is wrong. I've tried deleting the progress file in the backup folder and "resetting" TM by deselecting the backup drive and selecting it again. Nothing worked. Why would TM be so slow all of a sudden?
    Has anyone any ideas?

    That is a bit suspicious, but not necessarily wrong. Something caused it to think about 16 GB had been changed (it adds 20% for the "padding" in the message).
    How are you running Windoze? Is it on a separate partition? If you're running it via virtualization software, with the vm file on an OSX disk but excluded from TM, that's a possible explanation.
    105384 files in only 7.2mb? I doubt it...something seems fishy
    Those counts are nearly always very high, and sometimes crazy high. There's some indication it's counting all the metadata, extended attributes, etc., as separate files.
    If in doubt, boot up from your Install disc and do a +*Repair Disk+* on your boot volume. Then reboot normally and run another backup. That should trigger a "deep traversal," where TM will compare everything on your system with it's backups, to be sure it's got everything it should.

  • Upgraded from 10.6.8 to Mavericks last week on my MacBook Pro running the 2.4 GHz i5 and it's painfully slow on start-up- I mean, 5 minutes or more, to be fully functional... Is this normal?

    Upgraded from 10.6.8 to Mavericks last week on my MacBook Pro running the 2.4 GHz i5 and it's painfully slow on start-up- I mean, 5 minutes or more, to be fully functional... Is this normal?

    Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
    1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
        b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
         Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
         COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the
         computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager
         screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
         Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).
    4. Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).

  • Painfully slow access to admin console (how can I fix it?)

    Hi,
    I'm using using Sun Java System Web Server Version 7.0U4 B12/02/2008 02:17 running on CentOS (Redhat EL) release 4.4.
    The problem is that using the Admin Console (on port 8989) is painfully slow. It takes minutes for each page to load, but they do usually load.
    Any ideas on how to fix that?
    There are some other things going on that might be related and helpful to know:
    I get certificate errors when I access the Admin Console (e..g, IE complains about a mismatched address). I've tried following the directions to install the certificate in IE7 and FF3, but neither has stopped bothering me about the certificate error.
    I have the server behind a firewall which allows all outgoing traffic and select incoming ports to the server. The firewall also maps a public IP address to the server's local IP address (e..g, 10.10.10.8).
    If I access the Admin Console locally via the LAN address (https://10.10.10.8:8989) it is no longer slow, but I get booted back to the login screen very frequently (e.g, every minute or two of casual browsing through the console), and I still get the certificate error
    We haven't given the server a name, but access it by IP address, and the virtual server configuration in the Admin Console is name "localhost.localdomain"
    Any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! I've tried searching for solutions several times, but haven't succeeded.
    Thanks,
    Tim

    Thanks for the thoughts

    sounds more like some network issues. are you running your browser on your centos 4.4 as well ? also, did you try to connect using your IP - some thing like https://<ip>:8989 ?
    No, we're not running the browser on centos 4.4. We're runing browsers on laptops, connecting both offsite via public IP address and in the office via both the public IP address and the LAN ip address.
    Yes, we're using the ip address as you demonstrated. This machine does not have a domain name attached, so we only connect via ip addresses (mapped public or LAN)
    >>
    I get certificate errors when I access the Admin Console (e..g, IE complains about a mismatched address). I've tried following the directions to install the certificate in IE7 and FF3, but neither has stopped bothering me about the certificate error.it is not a certificate error. web server 7 admin server uses a self signed certificate . this is necessary step. however, IE reports a warning when it sees a self signed certificate. it wants you to know that it does not understand who sent this certificate. you need to create an exception - saying that you know what you are doing then there won't be any certificate error ..Okay, I'll look for how to do that, but so far I've only found instructions for how to install the certificate in the browsers, and unfortunately, that hasn't made a difference.

    if you want to increase this time out, you could do so by manually editing <install-root>/lib/webapps/admingui/WEB-INF/web.xml and change the value for session-timeout to say 600 (for 10 minutes).. . pl . note that this is not a supported way and you could potentially leave others to use your session if you are careless. but, if you know what you are doing .Thanks I did that. It surprises me that the default timeout appears to be 1 minute.

  • SCVMM 2012 R2 VM on SMB 3.0 file share cloning is not offloaded and painfully slow

    I setup a test environment, it appears the SCVMM always use BITS to clone VM that was painfully slow
    SCVMM1: SCVMM 2012 R2 with the latest windows update
    VHOST1 and VHOST2: Hyper-V Host. Windows Server 2012 R2 with the latest update
    SERVER1: Windows File server, with Windows Server 2012 R2 with the latest update. The storage is a single 512GB SSD.
    All VMs are located at a file share on SERVER1, the share is managed by SCVMM1 also.
    All computers have plenty of RAM (8G+) and modern processor. The individual I/O benchmark on SERVER1 is typical SSD speed.  Each VHOST has dedicated NIC for VM use. Each
    server has two gigabit NICs on same switch for data.
    The step to reproduce:
    1. Create a Windows 7 x86 VM on VHOST1 and install OS on it.  The VM is placed on the SERVER1 file share.  It runs well. no problem, VM performance is good.
    2. In SCVMM console, right clicks the VM and select "Create Clone", the deployment target is on the same SMB share as the source VM.  
    Actual:  It appears SCVMM clone the VM files with BITS, it is painfully slow. All data travel through network. Estimated 30 minutes for 30GB file!
    Expected result: SCVMM uses SMB 3.0 to make the copy. The source and destination are on the same SMB 3.0 share. The transfer of data should be offloaded by SERVER1, instead of reading all data then write it back cross network. (And from unknown reason the
    BITS is even much slower than network file copy).
    Did I miss anything? Any way to force SCVMM to do such offload copy?  Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi acacac1,
    >>Actual:  It appears SCVMM clone the VM files with BITS, it is painfully slow. All data travel through network. Estimated 30 minutes for 30GB file!
    Did you try to disable BITS then clone the VM again for test ?
    Any further information please feel free to let us know .

  • Ever since updating to latest version of Firefox it has been painfully slow on my Mac running OS 10.5.8.

    Ever since updating to latest version of Firefox it has been painfully slow on my Mac running OS 10.5.8.
    Websites just hang, and never get to where they are supposed to go. The status loop on tabs just spins and spins but never loads the site. Go to the same site on Safari and there in a second. It is like dial up slow. Have tried all the troubleshooting tips(reset, delete/re-create profiles, uninstall/reinstall, updated flash) nothing works.
    Firefox had been working fine until latest update. What gives?

    '''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in Safe Mode."''
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again.''
    '''''If it is good in the Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.
    Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.

  • Safari painfully slow on new Mac Mini

    I know there have been a number of threads on this topic and I have tried all of the tricks listed but Safari is still painfully slow to load web pages. I have tested my internet connection and it is fine. The real interesting thing here is that when I boot up under Windows (using Boot Camp) web pages load blazingly fast under IE, so it seems unlikely that I have a hardware problem. I have also tried Firefox with similar results. I love this new machine but I am pulling my hair out over its browsing performance.
    Anyone have a (new) thought?

    Please try a test account to see how Safari works
    there, if you do not have an other user account,
    Go to System preferences ->Accounts ->Login Options
    Tried this and believe it or not the problem was worse!
    se the [+] to create one, you can later use [-] to
    delete/remove the account.
    Do you use a third party Firewall or one on your
    router ?
    No on both accounts
    Do you use DHCP Lease ?
    Yes, I hit the "renew lease" button which had no effect
    In the Network ->TCP/IP tab do you have DNS # values
    entered in the
    DNS Servers box.
    No entries in the DNS
    Proxies tab, do you have any proxies selected ? if
    Yes how does Safari surf with out it ?
    No proxies selected
    Let us know what your findings are.
    Eme: )
    I am going to try FireFox again and see if there are any things I can tweak that make it bearable.
    Thanks, Richard

  • Acrobat 9 Pro: Printing Menu Painfully Slow

    Hi folks, new here and first post... I'm having problems with my Adobe Pro V9.  When I click the print icon, or select print, the dialogue box for the print menu is painfully slow to come up.  Even on small size, low resolution documents it can take over 60 secs for the print dialogue screen to come up.
    Does anyone know why this is the case? Can and how can it be fixed?
    One of the IT guys here gave me a big load of tosh about why it does this but I know from experience that it has got worse since first install and that some documents spool up really quickly.  Feedback and advice much appreciated.

    I have had some issues, but nothing as bad as you. It may be that your file has a lot of graphics or such.
    There appears to be a lot of preprocessing going on before the actual print that becomes the problem.
