Photoshop cc freezing the computer (problem solved)

Hi fellows,
My photoshop CC was freezing my computer, especially if I was using another program. In addition, when I started to paint the brush lagged a lot. The whole problem was the scratch disk, at the beginning I tried to increase memory usage, but it did not work.
So, I realized that in the scratch disk option (Edit>preference>scratch disks) the first option was the drive C (I have two HDs), what I did was, using the arrows on the right hand side, move the second disk to the first option, since it contain more space, it seems photoshop use it first than it moves to the second disk, if necessary. Thing is, it worked, now everything works properly. If you have only one HD, try to get rid of some unnecessary stuffs to get more space.
Please let me know if this worked for you
Best

turns out its a corrupt font thats been doing this:

Firefox freezes the computer for about 20-30 seconds (not even Alt+Tab works), the screen blinks black and then it shows the desired page. Does that several times at the beginning, then sort of stabilizes.

Firefox freezes the computer for about 20-30 seconds (not even Alt+Tab works), the screen blinks black and then it shows the desired page. Does that several times at the beginning, then sort of stabilizes.
This happens even if I simply hover the mouse over bookmarks, not even opening a page.
And waiting for this to happen some times or closing and re-opening seems to make it work ok again.
I've already disabled almost all add-ons (I'm using only one for Flash and NoScript right now), reinstalled Firefox (8.0.1), restoring only the bookmarks from an older version.

'''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 "'Start 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.
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''

Ipod will not sync to itunes, just stops half way and freezes the computer

I am considering buying an iPad 3. I have an iMac with OSX 10.6.8. On the iMac I have many photos and work with iPhoto and Photoshop Elements on the computer. Can I interchange or transfer photos and other work from the iMac to the iPad? How?

Yes you can. In iPhoto create a Album with the photos you want in it. You can drag them from your Events folder. In iTunes with your iPad connected go to Photos by cliking on your iPad. You can then select the album or events you want.

You can't sign in because there is nothing to sign in to. For PSE 10 the only sign in was to photoshop.com, which has been dead and gone for a year and half. Just skip the sign in. Reinstalling will not change this.

i have newest version 11.1.3.8 .

Adobe used to be choppy and would finally freeze the computer

I can't figure out how to update my earlier post so I posted again. For months Flash would be choppy on both video and audio play. Recently it would freeze the computer completely and a hard reset was the only answer. I tried the forums and was directed to the troubleshooting page. I followed that advice but found it made no difference. And device manager confirmed all drivers were up to date and working properly. I was going to have to reformat. As a last resort I did a search for drivers, but identifuying each of the componenets correctly I found to be impossible Finally one search turned up DriverMax. I know nothing about them but CNet gave them a favorable review. I had nothing to lose so I used it. After updating 7 "newly discovered" drivers, Adobe finally works perfectly. This is a bit disconcerting as the Troubleshooiting page only tells you to update drivers, and Device Manager tells you they are all up to date. I won't trust it again. I recommend you try this site and let us know if you have the same very positive experience I had. Maybe I am just lucky. Thanks

Yes, and it is an impressivem clear and comprehensive interface. Scan once and it produces a list of outdated drivers. You can download two a day free. It will create a Restore Point, you approve the install, you restart, test and then do the next one. You have to initiate/approve each step before they are implemented. Out of 7 drivers installed I only had to roll back one. I have tried the manufacturers site for updates before but the hardware, software and compatibility issues made it very problematic. I can't rebuild a transmission either and don't plan to learn how. And Windows always tells you the drivers are up to date. I have never had a Windows driver update produce one new driver. I have tried that properties/update drivers many times over the last 20+ years, and never saw one succeed.
Anyway, it is worth looking into. Let us know.

"Please connect to the internet-"problem solved by the latest Muse-update

Hi staff,
I'm happy to tell you that the former problem with the error message "Please connect to the internet…" when trying to start Muse is solved now by the latest update. At that time I talked to James Boag, he assumed Muse might not recognize my USB-modem (and I should try a different access point, which I didn't) but this is not an issue any more. When I launched Muse recently, it updated automatically and then started with no problems.
Thanks for the great work you've done in that matter.
Regards
Norbert

Hi arrakis13,
I’m afraid I cannot really help you.
I did not make any changes on my running system except that I’m on 10.8 Mountain Lion (upgraded from 10.6.8., no Lion in between), but this did not change the behavior of Muse at first. Only the update, which started automatically when I launched the app on August, 21, (still the trial version) caused the difference.
My firewall is on and in the firewall-options Muse has allowance for incoming connections, see the attached screenshot (sorry, in german, but you will understand the meaning). Airport is not active and I did not change my way to connect to the internet (as James Boag from Adobe suggested earlier, see also attached mailing). It just worked.
Meanwhile I upgraded to the official version (2.0.945) and still it works.
Hope you find a solution.
Regards
Norbert

This is still happening for me. I downloaded the beta yesterday and am on 10.7. I run software update but Muse is not showing up as having an update. My firewall is not running. Any suggestions on how I can get this running would be much appreciated.
Please let me know.
Thanks!!

ITunes freezes the computer before it comes up, so I have to pull the plug

I've tried everything I can think of-checking the system, uninstalling it then reinstalling it, but nothing seems to work. It just freezes the whole computer to the point where I can't even use Control Alt Delete to get out of it. If anyone can help, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Oh, and I have and XP if that helps.

10.5.5 freezes the computer

After installing 10.5.5 I have lost lots of data because the computer freezes immediately during work. I have repaired the permissions about five times, without success, though.
The repair procedure ends with two warnings stating that SUID-files could not be repaired because they have been changed. I don´t know what this means. I also don´t know why the computer crashes. Any help is highly appreciated.

Following the advice I could find on many pages, I have deleted the font cache because this should help to get rid of the problem with the ATSServer. Now, I experience about three craches a day instead of one. Well, the problem still exists.
Through checking the status of my computer from other places, I have found out that the computer does not crash, but seems paralyzed. You can open its display from another computer and see the entire display, with a frozen face, though. The calendar is still working, and also the screensaver works. The communication in the network functions to a certain degree. But the rest is dead and none of the programs that save the last available status of the respective document saves anything.
Any idea where the problem hides?

Backspace + power keys freezes the computer

macbookair (2013) has near buttons backspace and power key, then I sometimes pres booth these keys together, then computer sleep and immediately (looks like) wake up but freezed.

- it respons only on power button long press for restart the computer
this state is on my computer 100% repeatable.
when I press power button only, this is working normally.
thanks for any solution.

Did you recently upgrade to 10.4.8? Not sure of your OS version due to the multiple items listed at the bottom of your post.
There are two things you can quickly try:
move the com.apple.safari.plist file in your User Library>Preferences to the desktop and restart Safari. Does the crash stop? If not, move the file back to its original location, replacing the newly created Preference file. If it works, then you'll need to reset your Safari Preferences as well as View menu and Edit menu (spelling) selections you may have chosen.
Try Safari from another User Account. Does it crash? You can create another user account by going to System Preferences>Accounts. Apple directions are here..
Post back with results.

ITunes CONSTANTLY freezing the computer

For about a week now iTunes just won't stop freezing my computer. Anything I do (listen to a song, download a song or update my iPhone/iPod), it will freeze. The computer starts making noises and eventually i have to shut off the computer and restart because it stops responding.
I've looked through all of the support procedures for things that are related to this and right now I have an empty iTunes library, and just when I thought it was fixed, I go to copy my information back into iTunes and it freezes again.
Please help! My iPhone has all my information on it, and I can no longer put any new things on it because of this.

mangofreee,
Have you tried the steps in article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1451 ?
Hope this helps,

Toshiba 320Gb HDD on USB2.0 freezes the computer

I have just bought a Toshiba 320Gb USB2.0 HDD and whenever I try to transfer data the light goes red after about 20 secs and the computer freezes. The only way I can sort it out is by turning it off at the wall. The HDD works fine through a USB1.0 port and other peripherals like printers joysticks etc work fine through my USB2.0 Pci card just not my HDD any ideas what this could be??
Thanks

Hi
You can also try to use the USB1.0 port. But if you want to use the high data transfer you can try to use the firewire port. Using of Firewire to USB2 adapter for example.
