Performance and Stability Problem with PE9

I just upgraded my computer to a Core i5 with 8G of memory and everything is running much faster. But my NEW PE9 just run very slow. Some of the simple tasks take 10-30 second to complete. Even Windows 7 will often come out to ask if I want to wait for PE9 to wake up or kill the process. When I want to change the size of a video clip, it just doesn't work at all due to performance. It will take PE9 20-30 seconds to resize the video clip. Without some realtime feedback of the size, it is impossible to do the resizing and this is a very fundamental operation. PE9 often crash or seize up as well, I didn't have any of these problem with PE3.0. I upgraded to PE9 simply because my PE3.0 for WIndows XP is not comletely compatible with Windows 7 (some of the text displace does not show up).
Do anyone else have issue with performance and stability?

Performance and usability problems with Illustrator imports

I am usually an enthusiast advocate for Adobe Software. As a UI/Interaction designer I regularly showcase your products as a shining example.
That's why I am somewhat frustrated about the Flash Catalyst Beta. I trust you guys to come out with SOMETHING GREAT eventually, but I have just spend an entire day with Catalyst and it was not particularly a joy. Couldn't you have released it a bit later to save me the frustration?
Situation:
- Medium size Adobe Illustrator CS4 import (10 screens/stages with 20-100 Illustrator objects per screen)
- Target : 800x600 embedded UI for medical product
- Illustrator file chosen as starting point
Performance / reliability problems include
- Crashing (Vista Core2Duo with 2gig of Ram)
- Super poor performance (wait 8 seconds to hide/show a layer)
- No show of thumbnail images anywhere
- No matching of document size (exact 800x600 from Illustrator became 800x599)
- Playing the file did not work
Usability issues
- Poor test display
- Poor match with Illustrator file (things seem to be rendered differently!)
- Window selecting does not work well
- No hand tool
- No ability to lock layers
- Cluttered interface (Not enough space for the "stage"or what you call it)
- No way to resize Illustrator elements from one of 9 edge/center points
- etc. etc.
Building a wireframe version from the ground up (with Illustrator import) seemed to work fine
I played around with the MS Blend beta for a while, and while the basic concept of your product is much more clear, the execution of the MS product in the beta phase was lightyears ahead in terms of stability and usability
I'm sure you can do better!
Koen

Koen,
Thank you for the detailed feedback about the performance problems you have experienced and your thoughts about features you would like. Let me respond to each of your points
Performance: We are aware that Catalyst doesn't perform well with large complex files. We have made many performance improvements since the current plublic beta, so you should find Catalyst more responsive with larger projects when the next beta is posted.
Here are a few things you can do to work around the performance issues you are seeing with the current beta:
- Consider rasterizing complex elements that don't need to scaled in Catalyst
- In Catalst turn complex artwork into optimized graphics using the "Convert to optimized graphics" in the float HUD (heads up display panel)
We have also found that particularly on Windows that Catalyst can run out of memory with large files. This area is also being worked on so stay tuned for the next beta.
Features:
- Poor test display [tv] Do you mean the design display doesn't match the appearance of the published project?
- Poor match with Illustrator file (things seem to be rendered differently!) [tv] we have fixed a lot of bugs here. Expect this to improve a lot in the next beta
- No hand tool - [tv] coming soon :-)
- No ability to lock layers [tv] coming soon :-)
- Cluttered interface (Not enough space for the "stage"or what you call it) [tv] Yes, Catalyst currently cannot dock/undock panels
- No way to resize Illustrator elements from one of 9 edge/center points [tv] This is also a known limitation. I agree it is useful
I hope the next beta comes closer to meeting your expectations. A lot of performance work and new features has been done since the last public posting, so look forward to beta II.

Performance and bios problems with K8T

Hi, I recently installed a new graphics card (6800 LE) but when I went to benchmark it the scores were way down, 6377 in 3dmark 03 and 28,421 in Aquamark, and that was after I had installed the latest bios and mobo drivers from MSI, unlocked the cards pipelines to 16 and shaders to 6, installed the latest XG Nvidia drivers (80.40 ) and checked about everything else I could think of.
I looked at RivaTuner and in the Northbridge info it said AGP status - disabled and in the Display Adaptor info, AGP status - disabled. In the bios the setting for AGP is greyed out ( or blued out ) so I am unable to set it to 8X or even check what it is set for.
Just to add the icing on the cake I now find that I can't get into bios with my existing keyboard as it's a USB model. I refitted my old ps2 keyboard and got into bios where I enabled the setting for legacy devices but there was no setting for usb 1.1 port 64/60 Emulation as listed in the manua.
Any assistance on any of these problems would be gratefully received. Tal

I reloaded the 4 in 1 drivers and the XG 80.40 graphics drivers and my bechmarks soared. Thank a lot Tiresmoke.

Performance and Contention problem with the database ?

Hello!
I am having one database which is used by around 95 thousand
users.Database contain about 4 lakh records. The database is
going smooth and perfect.
The problem(perfomance is slow and there is contension too) came
when i made 4 web applications which contain atleast 1000 hits
(1000 records are inserted in the database ) per day.
Now the db is not going so smooth(contention and performance
problem).
I think this is happening becuase of those 4 web applications.
So should i make new database for that 4 applications or i need
to get the new system for it or there is another way through i
can tune my running database.
Any help will be appreciated.
Regards
Seemab

Hi,
If i well understand, u have one database and u insert 4000 rows
per day and u have performance problem ?
I think u have a big problem cause it's not really a big
intensity on a base. So u should have big problems on ur
database design such as undersized memory area, bad disk
repartition, bad types of indexes or something like that.
To decrease the contention, u should separate ur data and index
datafiles over differents disks and specialize tablespace by the
granularity of the table.
But u r not enough precise to expect a precise answer; could u
be more precise ? as the server u have, data volumes, a select *
from v$system_event, etc...
Good Luck,

Performance and stability in 10.4.7

I've had numerous performance and stability issues since the 10.4.7 update. Most noticeable are:
1) It often take a long time to focus on windows. When I click on, say, a Terminal window, the window raises immediately but is not active for about 1-2 seconds. (The close/minimize/maximize lights on the titlebar remain gray and the window is inactive.) During this time, the Terminal process is takes 50-90% of the CPU, and then the SystemUIServer process hogs the CPU for the following 1-2 seconds. This behavior is not exclusive to the Terminal process; it happens to other windows too.
2) When the system has been on screensave for a long time (say, >1 day), it becomes unresponsive to keyboard and mouse input and won't wake up. I usually have to power down the computer and reboot.
Has anyone else noticed this with the current OS? Could it be my fault somehow? If not, is it likely to be fixed in 10.4.8?
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.7) 1.5 GB memory

1) It often take a long time to focus on windows. When I click on, say, a Terminal window, the window raises immediately but is not active for about 1-2 seconds. (The close/minimize/maximize lights on the titlebar remain gray and the window is inactive.) During this time, the Terminal process is takes 50-90% of the CPU, and then the SystemUIServer process hogs the CPU for the following 1-2 seconds. This behavior is not exclusive to the Terminal process; it happens to other windows too.
This is unusual. My 10.4.7 is pretty instantaneous. It could be a sign that you are using something in the background that eats up the signal for graphics redraw. What third party software do you have installed? What peripherals do you have installed? Have you installed any Dashboard Widgets.
2) When the system has been on screensave for a long time (say, >1 day), it becomes unresponsive to keyboard and mouse input and won't wake up. I usually have to power down the computer and reboot.
Screen Saver or Energy Saver? Big difference here. Energy Saver could create such a situation especially with third party USB devices that are unfamiliar with Mac OS X's Energy Saver methods and send back signals expecting to receive back power and not getting it just as the machine wakes from sleep. If it is a Screen Saver, which Screen Saver? Have you tried to see if this happens without any pictures in your Pictures folder?
Is your data backed up? Diagnosing issues which result from force shutting down may require hard drive repair utilities. And the same issues that come from that can have caused the freezing and slowdown you are experiencing, as well as show up on a hard drive that is dying. So it is critical your data is backed up before we diagnose further. See my FAQ on backing up:

Stability problems with PC companion

Hi!
Just out of curiosity, am I the only one having stability problems with my PC after installing PC companion?
I'm getting three or four freezes per day after installing the suite and none after deinstalling.
("freezing": neither CtrlAltDel nor normal pushing of the switch off button work. I have to press the on/off button on the PC for 5s for a hardware switchoff)
We' seem to have traced it to a problem where a driver has the same name as one already installed on windows (apparently some fingerprint stuff). Unfortunately my colleague can't remember precise details anymore as it was some time ago.
Does anyone experience similar problems?
Lots of Greetings!
Volker

so your pc freezes after you open pc companion or without opening it..??

Mail and iPhoto Problems with sending photos.

Mail and iPhoto Problems with sending photos.
I have this problem that started a while ago and seems to be getting worse.
Here are the different scenarios.
-If I try to share a photo to email within iPhoto, it will insert the image file name in the mail message, but no image icon or opened image. In iPhoto Preferences under General I have chosen to use Email Photos using Mail.
-If I choose to use iPhoto to send the photo, it will compose the message and the photo is viewable. If I send the message i can view the photo within the email I sent to myself. Nothing happens when I double click on the photo in the Mail message. Nothing happens when i control click on the photo in the mail message. Nothing happens when I try to drag the photo to the desktop from the mail message. When I try to save attachments from the email and choose a place to save it, the save button is grayed out and it cannot be saved. When I check the mail message it says there is an attachemnt but there is no file size listed.
-If I use the stationary within Mail app I cannot drag a photo into the placeholder, I get a circle with a line through it symbol when I try. It happens if I try to drag a photo from the desktop or from the media browser within Mail app.
-If I drag the photo to the desktop from iPhoto, I can double click it on the desktop and it will open in Preview.
-If I then control click on the same photo on the desktop and scroll to share/email, the generic photo icon will be inserted in the mail message. If i double click the photo icon in the mail message I get a message it can't be opened because it is empty.
-If I drag that same image to the mail message body the same thing happens.
-If I send that email to someone they cannot open the image file.
What I can do:
- I can drag that same image file on the desktop to my dropbox folder and it will upload. From there I can go on my iPad and download the photo and send it through email just fine.
-I can open the same image file on my desktop in Preview, I can copy and paste it into a mail message and the image will be viewable in the mail message by me and by the recipient.
-I can drag that same image on the desktop to my safari browser window and it will be viewable in the page. i can then copy and paste that image into a mail message and it is viewable in the message. I can then send that email message to myself and i can control click on the image and get all my options. It also shows as an attachment with the size of the image file in the mail message.
I can send that message to someone and they can see the photo and open it fine.
-If I send that same email to me I can see the photo within the mail. If I then drag that photo to the desktop I cannot use it again to put in an email as the same problem happens again.
I have tried all scenarios in my user account, another users account and in a guest account. The same happens in all. I am guessing because of this it is not a corrupt preference file, unless all of the preference files are corrupt. The guest user account I added a new email account so it was brand new and still had the problem.
I am stumped, all and any help is appreciated.

Another problem that may be related….
I have Snapz Pro. I used to be able to save the snaps to my desktop or a folder. Now when I take a screenshot and try to save the file to my desktop or a folder on my desktop I get this message "Files cannot be created in the selected location. You do not have permission to write to the selected location. Please choose a different location." I have found that i can only save the file to the clipboard. I have repaired permissions many times and still I have this problem.

You can check you Adobe account online to see if the serial number is registered under your account. If not then your only option will likely be to contact Adobe Support directly thru chat to see if they can provide you with a/the serial number. For them to do so will require you being able to prove ownership.

If it's happening on all the apps that you've downloaded from the App Store, but not the Apple built-in ones, then try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.
If it's happening on all apps then try closing them all completely and then see if they work when you re-open them : from the home screen (i.e.not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Sorry, that didn't work. I get no drop down menu from the Hot Sync Manager for the Serial Port. What comes up often is: "The selected port, COM1, is not available at this time. Hot Sync Manager will open the port when it becomes available."
Could it be the Norton Antivirus Firewall that is preventing the Hot Sync Manager to open the Serial Port? Just a thought. Thanks for your help.

Scanner and fax problems with the Officejet 7410 AIO

Hi
I have Windows 7 SP1 Ultimate 64 bit and I installed the basic drivers for the network of the Officejet 7410 AIO printer and I checked that all its functions worked properly.
Now, the functionality of the scanner and fax do not work more as in the "Devices and Printers" not appear more their relative icons. How come? How do I install them manually?
Thanks
Bye

Snow Leopard is a Mac OS X version. You say that it's the version you have in your Mac (10.6.8). Do a back up of your files, format the hard drive (using Disk Utility) and reinstall again
