Photoshop CS6 extremely slow response times on Mavericks?

It sounds like a lot of people are having issues with Mavericks. I was happy as a clam with CS4, but a hard drive replacement - with the latest OS - forced me into CS6 (I have a subscription) a few months ago. Since then, it's been like simming in quicksand...
I've spoken with several reps, and they figured out that some of the issues were due to a bad user account. That's all fixed now, but it's still taking several minutes to become 'responsive' if I step away from the program for any length of time. Even if I just go to check email. It can take two minutes (or more) for the keys to become active.
It feels like I've disabled nearly everything off Photoshop, and it doesn't seem to matter if it's a complex multi-layered file or a screenshot PNG. It's all just painfully slow.
Can anyone suggest some tricks to get back my old' speed?

Moving this discussion to the Photoshop General Discussion forum.

PhotoShop CS6 extreme slow running

PhotoShop CS6 will not run usably on my new iMac 27in. I am using OS 10.8.4. Theother parts of CS6 seem to be fine, but PhotoShop is so impossibly slow (every click takes 20-30 seconds to respond, so a simple scaling of a photograph that would normally take me one minute can take me up to ten minutes.
Has anyone else encountered this, or is it just a problem with my iMac? Apple claim that no-one else has contacted them with this problem.

Resetting prefs is the first thing to try.
After that, you should try setting the font preview size to "none" and see if that helps (which would mean a corrupt font or OS font cache).
If you are running any third party plugins, try disabling them.

Photoshop CS6 extremely slow after changing text engine to Middle Eastern

Hello,
I'm using PS CS6 13.0.5 x64 on Snow Leopard (iMac 27" late 2012)
I tried to change the text engine to Middle Eastern, but after I restart PS, the program is nearly non-responsive, and it takes forever to edit text. Changing it back to East Asian solves the problem, but then again, I want to use the Middle Eastern feature...
When I use Illustrator CS6 I don't have such problems (although I have to write backwords, since there is no support for right-to-left in Illustrator in my version)
What could be the problem?

The problem is that you do not have a Middle Eastern version of Photoshop:

I believe the latest version of the ME edition is CS5.

Photoshop CS6 extremely slow with Mac OSX 10.9.5

Can someone please help me? I had CS5 no issues. But ever since I got CS6, Photoshop just doesn't work right. Doing the simplest thing completely bogs it down. I have been struggling with this for a year and am at my wits end. Please help.

This problem could arise if you have installed Kies. What it does is, it installs drivers which is not compatible with android file transfer app.
Now the solution for this problem is properly uninstall kids from your mac, to do this follow the steps:
1. Check the security and privacy settings in your system preference whether the settings for "Allow apps download from" to "Anywhere" (to set this first click the lock button on the left of your screen by entering your password, this will enable the option to be changed)
2. After you are done with the first step open the kies installation file (file that is used to install kies, if you have deleted the file, download it again) open the file there you will find an option "uninstall". Click and follow the instruction.
3. When you have successfully deleted the app, restart your mac.
4. Install Android file transfer app if you haven't done it yet.
5. Connect your android device
6. BANG! It will work just fine. Hope it helps!!

Why is Photoshop CS6 extremely slow with the brush tool using Wacom pen?

Could my wacom tablet be the issue? The psd processor spins not stop until I pick up the wacom mouse and click on an adjacent layer then back to the layer I was working on. Then the wacom pen work with the brush tool. This seems to happen when every time I pick up the pen and go back to the brush tool.

First, sorry it took so long to reply. Have been a bit swamped. What I mean by the psd processor, is the balls that rotate kind of like the SBDO when the app is executing a paint stroke. So I tried your suggestion, mad a new file 7w x 5d at 72pi, set the brush to 25px at 100% hardness and made a stroke with the wacom pen. It worked fine. The issue is working in large files say around letter size at 300dpi or large format graphics for trade shows at 150dpi. These files can range anywhere from 6ft x 8ft high to 16ft w x 10 ft h for an example. So painting in a channel mask or retouching using the brush tool in airbrush mode is painfully slow. I've found that while this little psd icon is spinning, if I take the wacom mouse, click on an adjacent layer then go back to the layer I was working on and resume with the airbrush, the problem subsides. It seems this spinning thing happens when I initially start using the brush on a layer or layer mask. Do you get what I'm trying to explain?

Extremely Slow Response Time Amongst other things

I've had my Powerbook G4 for almost 4 years now, and I have just recently starting having problems with it. It takes forever to connect to the internet and most of the time it takes about a minute for the mouse to catch up to what my finger is doing, and then to actually open a program such as Word or iTunes, which are commonly used programs for me, it will take 2-5 minutes. As well as it will stop typing randomly, for instance it just did it now typing this paragraph, and then it'll catch up about a minute later. Is this normal or is there anything I can do to fix this? I've tried rebooting it, and doing software updates but nothing has fixed it or made it better yet. Please help!

Welcome to the Apple discussions.
If you haven't already, you might want to read this performance FAQ: http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/performance.html . This will discuss, for example, the need to keep a minimum of your hard drive free for systems usage, sometimes expressed as 10% to 15% of the hard drive capacity.
Some have found using a utility like OnyX, available at http://www.titanium.free.fr/pgs2/english/download.html can help restore performance to a sluggish system. Do the tasks on the maintenance and cleaning tab, which may require reboot(s). Of course, before using any disk maintenance program it's good practice to have a current backup of the internal hard drive.
Have you checked recently that you have the memory you expect to have, i.e. you should have 2GB and you confirm the system agrees? Click the blue apple and about this mac to see the amount of memory the system recognizes.

Slow response time, applications won't load, etc.

I'm writing this on behalf of my sister, who is on a MacBook Pro, operating Mac OS 10.4.8.
Just yesterday, she began to notice extremely slow response time on her laptop, with applications taking up to 5 minutes to load sometimes, and the Internet subsequently taking ages to switch from page to page. The laptop is also constantly freezing up, with the spinning circle showing up frequently, as well as complete system freezes on and off.
I went on the computer and repaired disk permissions, as well as verified the disk. All went fine. Tried to do a software update in order to update to 10.4.9, but the computer freezes before it can even really begin to download the information.
Numerous reboots were also tried, with nothing working. I don't want to have to do something extreme like reinstalling the operating system without knowing that there might be a simpler solution, so that's why I'm here! I'd also like to know whether we can save her files (documents, etc.), if a reinstallation is needed.
Edit: She reports that she did install or download any software or file attachments, and keeps insisting that the problem virtually came out of nowhere, in case this helps!
Thanks!
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Alright-her computer has gotten progressively worse, and has not even managed to reach the log in screen for the past 10 minutes. Just a grey screen, an apple, and the little twirling loading thing.
Am at a loss as to what to do...last night, I could log in, but it was still hanging and taking just about forever for it to do anything.
Is a reformat the only thing left to do? She does subscribe to AppleCare-is it worth calling them, or will they just tell her to reformat as well?
Edit: I'm beginning to think this might date back to a lightning storm we had a couple days ago-does this sort of behaviour seem to follow the behaviour or something that experienced an electrical surge? Her phone in the room was acting funny as well for a few days.

EJB slow response time in cluster

We have 2 clusters : cluster 1(3 managed servers) and cluster2( 2 managed servers). We have an EJB deployed on cluster2 which is being called by an application on cluster1. Issue is that this EJB gives a very slow response time (in the order of minutes). There are no errors or exceptions in the logs.
When we shut down one of the nodes on cluster2, the respose from the same EJB is very fast. Please help as to where we should look out for the issue?

Could be that you have a network configuration problem. The source of the problem is how host names and IP addresses are resolved,
and there is a workaround. RMI and other naming services use the InetAddress class to obtain resolved host names and IP addresses.
InetAddress caches lookup results to improve subsequent calls, but when it is passed a new IP address or host name, it performs a
cross-reference between the IP address and the host name to prevent address spoofing. If you supply the host name as an IP address,
InetAddress still tries to verify the name of the host. To workaround this problem, include the host name and IP address in the
hosts file on the client, for example,
127.0.0.1           localhost
172.30.0.129      SomeWebLogicServerHostName
172.30.0.130      SomeOtherWebLogicServerHostName

Slow response times

This last weekend, we migrated off of our old server 2003 cf7mx server, to a new Server 2008r2 x64 CF 9,0,1,274733 server. We are now experiencing slow response times for our server,according to the Windows Performance monitor our Avg Request times are way up. I have been going through some logs but nothing seems to leap out at me, but i am not the best CF admin. As i dont know what information would be usefull, i have tried to give all the info.

Please let me know if any other data would be usefull.

Hi,
I expect the error details in CF9\runtime\logs\coldfusion-out.log will like provide a clue as to problem.
For a more long term plan I think you should do what you can to migrate the ACCESS data to SQL or some other database.
HTH, Carl.

T400s and T500 experiencing slow response time accessing certain websites from within our network

Hello there.... we have some Lenovo T400s running Windows 7 and T500 running WinXP Pro that are experiencing slow response time when trying to access certain website from within our company network (particularly this global crossing Web meeting, google maps): https://core1.callinfo.com/interface/guest.jsp?host=globalcrossing ... it takes 10-15 minutes before it loads the meeting login screen and same response time for google maps to respond as well... the thing is, other Lenovo T400s, T61, and other HP desktop machines that are connected to the same network in our company does not experience this slow response time... HOWEVER, when these problematic T400s / T500 laptops are connected to external network (e.g. home DSL, hotel DSL/Cable modem) the problem goes away. Our NETWORK ran tests to monitor traffic to the websites from our company's network but seem to connect just fine... just wondering if anybody out there experienced the same problem and know of a solution. By the way, the two newer T400s that are experiencing the slow response time have the following BIOS version 1.11 (6HET26WW) and BIOS version 1.09 (6HET24WW). Then a T400s that is also connected to the same network but not experiencing the problem has a BIOS version of 1.02 (6HET17WW - running WinXP Pro). NOTE: We also connected a Linksys USB wireless adapter to connect to our wireless network in the company but same problem - and problem occurs even when connected via network cable. Your feedback will be greatly appreciated.

Network World posted an article about a free response time monitoring tool that would be worth checking out

Safari 3.1.1 Extremely slow startup times (Suddenly)

Hi I'm running a Macbook with a 2.4 GHz Processor, (Intel Core 2 Duo), 4 Gigs of ram and Mac OSX Leopard 10.5.3.
this mac is about 2 months old and suddenly am having extremely slow startup times with Safari. The rest of the computer is very fast, this problem is only with safari... It used to open with about 2 or 3 bounces on the dock... now suddenly its around 15-20 bounces before it opens. It bounces this many times, and then I receive the beach ball for a few seconds. I am assuming it is probably a build up of some files, or tasks it runs through to open... It is worst when you open it for the first time after powering on the mac, after you open it, and close it it opens up a bit faster.
I have tried the basics, i.e. resetting safari and things like that.
Most of the suggestions for deleting files out of the User>Library> are for older OS's and do not apply to Leopard...
Any suggestions?

Navigate to this location: Macintosh HD/Users/YOURUSERNAME/Library/Preferences and delete the following files:
com.apple.safari.plist
com.apple.safari.RSS.plist
Do this with Safari NOT running. See if that solves the problem.

My mbp (mid 2010) is running extremely slow after installing some mavericks updates on May 22nd.

My mbp (mid 2010) is running extremely slow after installing some mavericks updates on May 22nd. Earlier I thought this behavior is due to spotlight indexing but it finished after 3 days. I deleted all caches from library. But no luck, still running extremely slow. I checked activity monitor for cpu usage, it shows above 90% is idle. The memory usage always shows PM - 4 GB, Memory Used 3.96 GB, VM - 4 GB, Swaped used 0 bytes, App Memory 1.82 GB, File Cache 1.44 GB, Wired Memory 480 MB.
Thanks in adavnce for help.

Was it the combo updater that was installed or the OS X 10.9.3 update. There is a difference.
MORE INFO ON WHY RUNNING COMBO FIXES ISSUES
Apple updates available from the Software Update application are incremental updates. Delta updates are also incremental updates and are available from Apple Downloads (software updates are generally smaller than delta updates). The Combo updates contain all incremental updates and will update files that could have become corrupted.
Combo updaters will install on the same version as they're applying--no need to roll back or do a clean install. So if you think you've got a borked 10.8.4 install from a regular update, just run the 10.8.4 Combo Updater on that system.
"Delta" updaters can only take you from one version to the next. For example: 10.9.1 to 10.9.2. If somehow the 10.9.2 is missing something it should have, and that something isn't changed between 10.9.1 and 10.9.2 it will still be stale after the delta update.
