PC Suite extremely slow under Vista.

Hi,
Latest version of PC Suite, 6.85.14.1, trying to open and reply to text message. Suite took around 5 minutes to open the message then closed it when I tried to reply, opening the reply box some 5 minutes later.
My machine is fast, Dual core 3.0Ghz, 2Gb Ram, Vista rating of 5.7 and is running Windows Ultimate with all windows Patches and fixes applied, IE7 and all latest Flash etc plugins.
Also running McAfee VirusScan 8.5i no patches and latest DAT file. Windows Defender and Windows Firewall.
Thanks for any input in advance.

It's also causing stop code 0x00000000A on visit when you remove the phone. (this happens at work also in XP when you plug the phone in again after removing it)

Numbers 09 (Rel. 2.1(436)) extremely slow under Lion

I just gave Numbers a try with a relatively low complex mortgage calculation - 13 columns, 200 rows - simple formulas (if ... then ... else, difference in dates, simple multiplications).
Numbers is extremely slow - whenever something is changed in the tables, Activity Monitor shows 100% CPU usage and the SBOD appears - it's nearly not possible to work. Restart of my MacBook Pro or Numbers allone has not made anything better. Has anybody made the same observations, i submitted feedback to Apple, but i have the feeling, that nobody is reading it (3 years ago i submitted the wish for goal seek for Numbers or some sort of Automator support)
The dilemma is:
Many of my coworkers now have iPad and iPhone and could use Numbers (i know there are some Excel Simulations for iPad and iPhone around, but these are not so nice to use) - therefore i want to provide the previos Excel Sheets as Numbers documents - but with this performance it's impossible to use Numbers.

"200 rows of formulas in a Numbers document might be considered to be large ..." - that's complete nonsense - in the beginning of my "Apple History" i had a Mac IIsi, on this machine there was a spreadsheet software running, it's name was Ragtime - i did exact the same calculations which i now want to redo with Numbers - the IIsi with 8 MB of RAM was crunching trough these calculations a lot faster than my Macbook Pro - and there were not only 200 rows to calculate - (to be exact it were 300 + (4 x 25) rows - calculation 300 months + 4 quarters per year).
Apple builds very nice hardware (most of the time), Apple designs very nice software (also most of the time) - but sometimes Apple Software is truly unusable if one decides just to get one step ahead the absolute-zero-level-hobby-user.
Of course i know the phrase "horses for courses" and everybody will scratch his head "why does this guy absolutely want to use Numbers for this task and not the old Excel?" - i can tell you that: Because Excel has very bad layout options - in Numbers i can produce very nice layouts, free movable tables, integrated pages which sum up more sub-tables ... - yes, thats also possible with Word an Excel but not in this intuitive way Apple has come up.
BUT - since Numbers is (and keeps) so dramatically slow it's barely unusable - it makes me sad, that i will never see Numbers being used in a business environment.
PS: please excuse my rough English, i'm from Austria.

DIY FusionDrive extremely slow under Mavericks

Hi,
I have a self made FusionDrive on my MacBook Pro Late 2011 (Samsung SSD 840 PRO 256 GB + 750 GB Apple HD)
Since upgrading to Mavericks, it is EXTREMELY slow ! Black Magick shows 20-40 MB/s write speed !!!! I used to have 5 times more ! Read speed is also worse than before.
Anyone could help with this ?
Thanks

Did you ever figure this out? I am experiencing a similar issue, detailed here:

Stage/Timeline extremely slow under Mountain Lion

Hello everyone,
I'm having this issue with Flash CS6 on OSX Mountain Lion. Almost every action in the program causes it to slow down considerably. Things such as selecting/moving anything something on the stage, selecting something in the liberary panel, clicking buttons on any editor panel, and scrubbing the timeline. Even using the Mac's menu bar in Flash is slow. The slowest thing is playback from the timeline editor, it becomes so slow that it often crashes the application:
Even though all of this is happening, every other application is running perfectly fine. Flash isn't taking more RAM or CPU that it usually does (except when it's about to crash), and I've only had this problem after upgrading to Mountian Lion, in Lion everything was fine. SWF file publish and playback have no problems whatsoever. The exact same problems are even effecting Flash CS5.5. I am an Adobe Creative Cloud member and all the other apps that I've tried work perfectly. I've also tried Flash CS6 in Windows on the same machine and that works as it should. This problem also consists on not only my existing .fla projects, but also brand new ones with absolutly nothing in the liberary or stage.
I have an Early 2011 13-inch Macbook Pro with a 2.5 GHz i5 and 8 GB RAM upgrade. I also have the 32-bit version of Flash CS6 and CS5.5, and of course OS 10.8
I have a Bootcamp of Windows, so I can keep working, but rebooting is a big hit on my workflow, so I plan to use my backup of Lion. But before that, I want to try and solve this problem.
Thanks to those who read this! I hope I can solve this problem.

Yep - I know the MacFuse is dead, but aparently it is the only way to run the free NTFS-3G plugin. All other options are commercial. I am trying now Paragon NTFS For Mac - if it works, I will have to buy it. And it's the same 20$ as I pay for the whole OS! So basically I will just consider going back to Snow Leopard - I know that I will have much less compatibility problems there in general... I will be able to also run Extensions Manager 1.8 (CS3) there, cause it also doesn't work on Mountain Lion (it is a known issue). It's just too much isn't working for me on 10.8 and Adobe

Speed issue macbook5,1 extremely slow under lion

Often have to "force quit" Aperture, Omnigraffle, Safari, Skype never open at the same time.
The speed is very slow.
MacBook 5,1 OS-X Lion 10.7.3, Ram 4Go, HD WD-6400 ScorpioBlue

Run the Apple hardware test from your Snow Leopard disk that came with the system. Insert the one that says 'AHT Version x.x' in small print on the label. Boot holding the D key down (or hold the alt/option key and choose the AHT when prompted). When prompted, choose the extended test. Does this identify any hardware issues?
Bring up Disk Utliity, choose the internal hard drive, and on the first aid tab do a verify disk. Does this identify any issues? If so, go into Lion recovery mode (boot with command + R) and use Disk Utility to repair the hard drive.
Assume you have plenty of disk space available for application and system usage? Minimum of 5GB, and more is better.

Flash Builder 4 Extremely slow under Windows 7 + Java

Hello,
I have the following configuration:
Sony VAIO SZ
Intel Core 2 Duo 2.1 GHz (T8100)
4GB DDR3
NVidia 8400M GS
320GB (7200 RPM) HDD
Windows7 Ultimate (6.1.7600)
I'm trying to use Adobe Flash Builder 4 (build 272416) in Trial mode.
I was working for a long time already with the Flex Builder Plug-in 3. Compilation time was always a headache, true, but it still was affordable. But with the Flash Builder 4 production that became so bad that I can't simply use it event to test.
When started form the "clean" workspace, bundled Eclipse and only one project (Flex) is created - everything looks fine. Even if you add a "hello world" pop-up to your application (that's sarcasm, yeah =)
The situation changes dramatically when you have any number (greater than zero of course) of Java projects in your workspace.
Compilation time skyrockets to about 1 - 2 minutes - first (on an empty project created with wizard). Second - it starts crashing with or without reason.
When I'm trying to create a new Flex project (having several Java projects in the workspace) - the moment the wizard is complete and it's going to show me the contents of the newly created MXML (yes, a few lines with no logic at all) it crashes. When I'm trying to open existing project - well, it opens, but compilation times are greater than 2 minutes (that's a tiny project with a few screens with primitive design, three AS classes and two CSS files and one image included) whenever I just put an empty string to even the main MXML.
When I'm trying to switch to design view - it crashes 80% of time. The rest 20% it show "gray field" and bugs UI completely.
When building starts - the only way to avoid it ... well ... go drink a tea. It's impossible to cancel and if I try to cancel it - it hangs forever. Only killing the eclipse process helps.
And, really, 2 minutes of compilation time? Are you serious? It's like, change the line of code, save, wait 2 minutes with 50% chance of observing never-ending activity?
Btw, I've tested the Flash Builder Beta - there were no such problems. Everything was really cool and smooth. Compilation time was even faster than Flex Builder 3. And such a surprise with the production version.
It's all with the JDK 6u14 (yes, I've tested it with the most recent one - 6u18 - the same picture).
So, is there anyone experiencing the same behavior and any hints on how to fix it? It's really annoying especially knowing and waiting to get hands on all those great SDK 4 features.
Thanks!

I think the longer compile times when embedding fonts are sort of to be expected. You're embedding an awful lot of glyphs into your SWF (versus using device fonts or setting an explicit unicode range).
For example, I tried with the following simple example in Flex 4.0:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
        xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
        xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"
        applicationComplete="lbl.text = (loaderInfo.bytesTotal / 1024).toFixed(2) + ' KB';">
    <fx:Style>
        @namespace s "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark";
        @namespace mx "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx";
        @font-face {
            fontFamily: Calibri;
            fontWeight: normal;
            fontStyle: normal;
            src: url("c:/windows/fonts/calibri.ttf");
        @font-face {
            fontFamily: Calibri;
            fontWeight: bold;
            fontStyle: normal;
            src: url("c:/windows/fonts/calibrib.ttf");
        @font-face {
            fontFamily: Calibri;
            fontWeight: normal;
            fontStyle: italic;
            src: url("c:/windows/fonts/calibrii.ttf");
        @font-face {
            fontFamily: Calibri;
            fontWeight: bold;
            fontStyle: italic;
            src: url("c:/windows/fonts/calibriz.ttf");
        global {
             fontFamily: Calibri;
             fontSize: 24;
    </fx:Style>
    <s:controlBarContent>
        <s:Label id="lbl" color="red" fontWeight="bold" />
    </s:controlBarContent>
    <s:VGroup horizontalCenter="0" verticalCenter="0">
        <s:Label text="Calibri regular" />
        <s:Label text="Calibri bold" fontWeight="bold" />
        <s:Label text="Calibri italic" fontStyle="italic" />
        <s:Label text="Calibri bold+italic" fontWeight="bold" fontStyle="italic" />
    </s:VGroup>
</s:Application>
Now, the .SWF file in my /bin-debug/ folder was pretty large (~1440 KB -- or about 1.4 MB). When I exported a release version of the .SWF using Builder that number dropped down to ~970 KB (or 0.9 MB). Still rather large.
Typically when embedding fonts you'll want to specify a unicode range so you only embed the characters you care about (English uppercase/lowercase, punctuation, numbers, etc). Or you could embed Thai ranges or whatever else you want.
So if I specify the following unicode range for each of the four embed statements, the SWF sizes drop considerably:
unicode-range
: U+0020-002F,U+0030-0039,U+003A-0040,U+0041-005A,U+005B-0060,U+0061-007A,U+007B-007E;
/bin-debug/: ~970 KB (67%)
/bin-release/: ~520 KB (53%)
You can find some examples of unicode ranges in the /frameworks/flash-unicode-table.xml file in the Flex SDK. Also, you can specify custom named unicode ranges in your /frameworks/flex-config.xml file:




And this way you could just specify a unicode-range of "englishRange" instead of having to do U+0020-002F, etc.
Hope that helps,
Peter

Why operates Indesign extremly slow under Win7/64 bit?

It seems that Indesign is operating from the harddirve only although I am running a fast (new) computer with 6 GB RAM. When I type a word each character takes seconds to be displayed and the harddrive is working like mad - according to the noice.

Extremely slow performance on projects under version control using RoboHelp 11, PushOk, Tortoise SVN repository

We are also experiencing extremely slow performance for RoboHelp projects under version control. We are using RoboHelp 11, PushOk and a Tortoise SVN repository on a Linux server. We are using a Linux server on our IT guys advice because we found SVN version control under Windows was unstable.
When placing a Robohelp project under version control, and yes the project is on my local machine, it can take up to two hours to complete. We are using the RoboHelp sample projects to test.
We have tried to put the project under version control from Robohelp, and also tried first putting the project under version control from Tortoise SVN, and then trying to open the project from version control in Robohelp. In both cases, the project takes a ridiculous amount of time to open. The Robohelp status bar displays Querying Version Control Status for about an hour before it starts to download from the repository, which then takes more than an hour to complete. In many cases Robohelp becomes unresponsive and we have to start the whole process again.
If adding the project to source control completes successfully, and the the project is opened from version control, performing any function also takes a very long time, such as creating a topic. When I generated a printed documentation layout it took an astonishing 218 minutes and 17 seconds to complete. Interestingly, when I generated the printed documentation layout again, it took 1 min and 34 seconds. However when I closed the project, opened from version control, and tried to generate a printed documentation layout, it again took several hours to complete. The IT guys are at a loss, and say it is not a network issue and I am starting to agree that this is a RoboHelp issue.
I see there are a few other discussions here related to this kind of poor performance, none of which seem to been answered satisfactorily. For example:
Why does it take so long when adding a new topic in RH10 with PushOK SVN
Does anybody have any ideas on what we can do or what we can investigate? I know that there are options for version control, but am reluctant to pursue them until I am satisfied that our current issues cannot be resolved.
Thanks Mark

Do other applications work fine with the source control repository? The reason I'm asking is because you must first rule out that there are external factors causing this behaviour. It seems that your it guys have already looked at it, but it's better to be safe than sorry.
I have used both VSS and TFS and I haven't encountered such a performance issue. I would suggest filing it as a bug if you rule out that the problem is not related to external influences: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform&loc=en

Itunes 8 extremely slow and feezes Vista

Oh my god,
This is getting worse. If you tought that Itunes 7 and Vista weren't ment for eachother, Itunes 8 and Vista just hate eachother. Itunes 8 is just extremely slow on my fresh installed Vista. It keeps freezing up and sometimes my system won't respond to a thing I am doing thanks to the wonderfull crappy software from Apple...
If this is really all you guys can write then I guess I will have to look for a better software to synch my ipod.

I've definitely noticed that switching between library sections (music, movies, etc.) is much slower in iTunes 8 than it was with ver. 7. So far, it's a teeth gritting annoyance at worst. It improved somewhat when I set all areas to List View, but only somewhat. The program also takes longer to load than version 7 did (sort of unbelievable in itself!), and there WAS one heart stopper of a moment where I thought it had locked up and taken my HP laptop with it, but it came back after 15-20 seconds on its own. I don't have a novice-level PC by any means; it's one of the newest and nicest of the direct-to-retail models, with a Core 2 Duo (P8400), discrete Nvidia 9600M GT w/512MB RAM, and 4GB of system RAM, running Vista HP 64 bit. (Yep, I installed the 64-bit iTunes.) I did notice one other poster mentioned having an HP laptop. Doesn't seem like hardware limitations should be a factor, at least in my case; I hope, whatever the issue turns out to be, that it isn't some total incompatibility with something HP loads on its machines. I'm sure Apple will come up with a bug fix at some point, but since the iPhone 3G became part of my life, it sure seems like a large chunk of that life is spent waiting for Apple to fix bugs and putting up with subpar performance in the meantime. I'm pretty new to things Apple, and I can say quite honestly that all the problems I've had with various iPods, the iPhone 3G, and here and there with iTunes were the reason I chose my current laptop over a MBP. I couldn't stand the idea of spending all that money and getting a lemon. Apple isn't the huge performer I'd always heard it was, not in my experience!

Extremely slow internet in vista ultimate

been having this problem since i installed windows vista ultimate. i had xp before on my imac 20" 2.4ghz and it worked fine. but since i installed the vista ultimate the internet is extremely slow and it would take an hour to open a webpage, if im lucky.
so far the only solution i have now is to restart the router everytime i switch from osx to vista ultimate. sometimes the internet is so slow i can't even access the router webpage (192.168.0.1). but in the meantime i can access it with my ipod touch no problem.
is anyone else having the same problem?
hope to get some response.
thanks a lot!

I encountered very slow network performance with Vista and bootcamp and this is what I found.
I have a DLINK DIR-655 router which I upgraded the firware to 1.10 (which supports 802.11n and some other enhancements). I did this for it seems that Vista was handing my DLINK Router. This router seems to work great on my iMac running Leopard in 802.11n mode.
Next I noted that the Microsoft Broadcom 802.11n wireless driver was being loaded in Vista/Bootcamp. I believe during some of the Windows Update that the older Broadcom driver was loaded.
I reloaded the driver located on the Leopard Install DVD and in the "Drivers" folder and installed the "BroadcomInstaller". This installed the Broadcom driver ver 4.8.75.0 date 1/8/07.
Then in the Driver properties in the Advanced Settings, I did the following
IBSS Mode set to "802.11a/b/g/n Auto"
Rate (802.11b/g) set to "54" vs "Use Best Rate"
This did not set my network to 802.11n but my network performance went from dismal to excellent. I tried playing with the Rate settings but it appeared that the IBSS mode did the trick. Now I can not wait until I can get 802.11n working.
Hope this helps

Flash CS4 extremely slow!

It's extremely slow to render any flash motion in CS4. I import to the stage some material and when I try to change and create any motion the processor usage raise up to 50% and the program freezing. It will be completly useless... Is there any solution to this problem? thx a lot!

Thank you for your fast reply!
Yes it's possible with virtual machine it would be more faster than now. I use the sw under Windows 7 too but before this system I had Vista with the same problem. So I don't know. The newest patch did not help yet.
I work under an Asus F3Sv series notebook with Core Duo T7500 and with Geforce GS8600M GS (256Mb).
But It's very strange: under Vista I couldn't do anythin for an examle in the actionscript editor. After Windows 7 it has been working now. But the prevoius problem is still ongoing.

Extremely slow deleting / modifying of files

Hi all,
I have a strange problem with windows 7 in combination with server 2008 R2.
Situation.
1] I copy a bunch of files to the server (UNC of mapped driver) with W7 (32 or 64 bits professional.)
2] I want to delete the files i've just copied (same issue with modification) it is extremely slow. Only 1 file per second
sometimes even slower.
When I perform the same actions with Vista or XP it is extremely fast. For vista I had to switch off Remote Differential Compression.
I did this also for W7 but no improvement. Delete files with the W7 machine is also fast when copied to the server from the vista or xp
machine. I've tried serveral new machines with W7 but all show the same problems.
Any help is welcome,
with kind regards
Roland

WRT160N N Router extremely slow connection

i just bought a WRT160N N Router. i have a 12 mb/s connection. i bought it through best buy and the sales rep told me it could handle that speed no problem. well i got home and got it set up, not even close to being able to handle that speed. i know you lose a little bit of speed by going to a router verse plugging the ethernet cable in direct but this is rediculous. pages are loading extremely slow, and when i torrent something when i was plugged in direct i was averaging about 1.3 mb/s. with the router which is sitting 6 feet from me at the moment im getting 80 kb/s at best. was i told wrong by the sales rep? am i doing something wrong?
im running a Dell 1535 Studio Laptop with Vista. thank you for your time. any help is great.

What is the model no of the Wireless adapter you are using on the Laptop..?
Are you getting the same problem on other computer....?
Try to readjust the settings on the router...Open the setup page by typing 192.168.1.1 in the address bar..Under the setup tab,change the MTU to 1350 and click on save settings..Under the Wireless tab,Change the Channel Width to 20MHz only and Channel to 11.Provide a unique name to SSID and click on save settings...Under the Advanced Wireless Settings...Change the Beacon Interval to 75,Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304,Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 and Click on Save Settings...Under the Security tab...Uncheck Filter Anonymous Internet Requests and click on Save Settings...
Power cycle the router and check...

FCP 6.0.1 Running and previewing extremly slow

Ever since I upgraded to 6.0.1 FCP is running extremly slow.
In my current project, I brought in a HDV QT.mov that needed to be Chroma Keyed and color adjusted. Previewing the chroma keyed file looks horrible (all jagged) unless I render it. That takes time. Then I added a piece of stock DV footage under that, blurred the background and it played back like crap until I rendered it. More time. And so on.
I can't make any adjustment and see how it looks without rendering.
When I was working in 5.1 FCP I was able to add all type of files and zip right through them pretty much. Now I can't seem to get my settings right or something...so as I apply different effects or filters I can never see on the fly how it looks without rendering it first. Then of course...if it's not right...I tweak it again but can't see how that looks until I render it again.
All my video files resides on a RAID that I created from 2 of my internal drives and it also is my scratch & render disk.
It's eating my lunch on production time.
Any suggestions Please.

You could try setting the render in the sequences you work with to ProRes. Found in that sequence setting's video processing tab.
But the real fix is to not work in HDV at all. If you have an Intel mac, a capture card like the Kona LHe card will transcode your HDV directly to ProRes... or AJA's Io HD (at the high end of this workflow) will transcode the HDV to ProRes on board the box itself... The Io will take your HDMI signal directly from the camera and transcode it to anything. It starts shipping any day now.
You're a brave soul attempting chroma keys with HDV... they are nigh on impossible to look good. But ProRes will make the rendering times go way down, and give you more real time playback of effects.
