Photoshop freeze? maybe the Firewall?!?

During normal using of Photoshop CS (but also in Flash Pro) in my small LAN I experimented frequently applications freezes, with the rainbow beachball running for 30 sec or more, expecially before the "Save for Web..." windows to pop up.
A very boring problem that slow the works.
The scenario was:
- 5 PowerMacs with Tiger 10.4.5 (with sharing Mac folder "on")
- 3 PowerMacs with Panther 10.3.9 (sharing "on" but unaffected by freezes)
- 1 Xserve for file archive and print sharing
After a lot of search I discovered that the problem could be the Firewall setting on Tiger!
On all Macs of the LAN the firewall was enabled and with "stealth" and "block UDP" advanced setting set to "ON"
In the last 3 days, I tryed turning off the advanced settings on all Macs and things seems to work better.
Problably the system freeze from time to time looking for others connected Macs (via AFP) on the LAN but the "stealth" mode or "UDP" block it?
Does it make any sence?

Are you power cycling the modem in between moving it from your Laptop to your iMac? Time Warner's boot files only allow one IP Address assignment per boot cycle. Basically, your modem will only talk to one computer during a session its turned on.
Try this: Turn off iMac, unplugged modem from power. Hook your ethernet cable from your modem to your computer. Plug in modem. After all of the lights come on, turn on iMac.
If this doesn't work, I have a few other suggestions.

Photoshop Freeze on File Open

I'm using Photoshop CS3 on Windows XP. When I try to open a file from File>Open the Window appears for a fraction of a second and then disappears. At that point Photoshop freezes. The Task Manager says it's still running, but everything is frozen. I can't click on minimize or close, none of the tool bar icons, nothing. I can create new files. I can use Browse to open files, or I can just drag them in from a folder. One of the plugins I was using would also freeze Photoshop ocne I pressed ok for the filter to apply. The plugin/filter was NvidiaTool's NormalMapFilter. Resetting the Prefs and/or deleting the .psp file seems to have fixed that.
I've deleted the .psp file. I've done the ctrl-shift-alt to resest the Prefs as well. I've switched my default printer. I deleted a printer I didn't use anymore.
Any ideas what's causing it?

To test Mylenium's theory, do you get control again if you hit the Esc (escape) key? That would be the equivalent to hitting the [Cancel] button on the File - Open prompt. If not, an off-screen window is not the problem.
I believe you can clear up window positioning problems by resetting Photoshop's preferences... Press and hold Control-Shift-Alt when first starting Photoshop from its menu entry or shortcut. You have to be quick.

I tried a lot of time to download Lightroom on my MacBookPro without success. I already remove the firewall. Maybe because of a slow connection in Lebanon? Or another problem?

When I try to backup my files from photoshop elements 12 the "calculating total media size" box will only get as far as 46% and then freeze, how can I make it go to 100%

hi barbara
thank you for your response, i appreciate it. there's definitely nothing wrong with the mouse or trackpad, both work fine in every other application....i can also easily change size dimensions in other programs on my computer so it doesn't seem to be that either. it seems like there is something weird going on in the way that pse and my mac are interacting with each other, just wish i knew what it was. thank you again, wish me luck!

Whenever I try to open Firefox it says cannot establish connection, maybe your firewall is preventing us from accessing the web.

Whenever I try to open Firefox it says cannot establish connection, maybe your firewall is preventing us from accessing the web. Even though I've let Firefox through my firewall, this message still appears. And whenever I try to redownload it, it just says installation failed. It does this with all installations... Is there something wrong with my computer? How do I fix it?

Sometimes you only disable the user interface of security software, but the firewall or anti-virus services are still running in the background.
It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

My month-old MacBook Pro 13in freezes all the time

I don't know what the deal is, every time I watch videos on websites other than YouTube, such as Hulu, or download I guess what could be considered relatively hearty software i.e. Photoshop, or end a Skype call, my computer freezes. Like entirely. I can't move the cursor, no sound, and I have to manually reboot the system with the on/off button so that I can use it again. It started doing this maybe the third day I had it, but I didn't take it up with Apple initially because I didn't realize that the problem would become chronic. I've taken it to the Genius Bar twice and they have yet to shed much light other than offer the theory that Flash Player may be outdated or in need of being reinstalled, and I've done that; no luck. I had Apple keep the computer for a few days to run diagnostics but they told me nothing in regards to anyhting being wrong with it. This is beyond frustrating. Any ideas? I'll be back at Apple tomorrow to give it yet another go.

If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
If you have an optical drive, make sure there is no disc in it.
Launch the Console 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 Console in the page that opens.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time when you had the problem. Post the messages logged during the time something abnormal was happening. That time might be before or after the boot.
For example, if the problem is a slow startup taking three minutes, post the messages timestamped within three minutes after the boot time, not before. If the problem is a system crash or shutdown failure, post the messages from before the boot time, when the system was about to crash or was failing to shut down. In either case, please include the BOOT_TIME message at the beginning or the end of the log extract.
Post the log text, please, not a screenshot. If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.
Step 2
Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

Hello
1. I am running on Windows 8.1
2. When running the installer file from https://creative.adobe.com/products/download/reflow I get the following choice
I click "OK" which doesn't do anything for me (CC is off).
I turn CC on and run the installer again. I get the following window that within few settings disappears:
Then - just for half a second it says "Launching Creative Cloud desktop" and then it brings CC to front, and that's all.
RF still not there.
3. I spoke ta support agent on the Adobe chat on Friday. He looked into my computer for an hour. Uninstalled After Effects (after failing to update it). For some reason all apps disappeared from the list. They then reappeared after he opened PS.
This morning After Effects is still showing up in my system and is operational.
Weird.
4. At the end the agent suggested maybe Firewall is the problem here. Trying that out now.

Photoshop freezes after new installation.

I have a PC with windows 7. I have had photoshop on here for a year or so with no problems. I recently reformatted my PC and now for some reason when I open photoshop after it has finished installing, the grey window opens and just freezes. ive tried reinstalling 10 times and it does the same thing every time. I dont understand what could be different now than before.. maybe some kind of windows update? Either way I really need get this fixed and get back to work!

I found another thread with the same problem and the guy figured out that he needed to update the licensing EUA. i downloaded it but i dont know how to "install" it ha
Problem finally solved! Someone figured out the problem and pointed me at:
http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/licensing_download_eula.html
That is a command-line utility that updates the FLEXnet licensing service to the latest and greatest version. Updating it fixed my problem. I was finally able to start Photoshop and got the product activation screen. I was also able to successfully activate the product.
The tool itself is kind of cheesy and is command-line driven, but as long as it works I could care less. Appears to be written in Python."""

After the last Yosemite update on my MacBook pro I turned the FileVault on, now my Mac is freezing all the time and encrypting the drive looks like going to last forever and I am unable to use my MacBook pro what must I do???!!!

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in 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.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Acrobat 9 Pro freezes at the attempt to print from IE8

Hi,
I have reoccurring problem with printing to PDF using Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.1.2 (apparently the newest) from various IE8 web pages. Every now and than the little window showing the progress of printing just freezes and the only way to get forward is to end process (using Task Manager) of the printing (adobe) and IE8, (which gets stuck at the same time as well).
Just few minutes ago I just tried to do the same on Equity Thought website from my account and it repeated the same trouble.
I have cleared all temp files and rebooted and tried again, this time switching IE8 to compatibility mode prior, and result is the same. New Adobe Acrobat is failing to print to PDF from some websites and I am unable to find solution on my own.
I have browsed Interent and it appers I am not alone in this problem. IE8 seems to provide a lot of trouible to users of Adobe Acrobat software. However I was unable to find any solution for my case.
On the other PC, where I have still Acrobat Pro 7.1.0 I do not have any problem with printing to PDF. IE8 does not need to be in compatibility mode for this.
Both PC are on Win XP pro with SP3.
So I would assume this is not MS software problem but Adobe.
Therefore my query is:
Is anyone familiar with this type of problem and knows where to look for solution, or maybe even knows what the solution could be, please.

No, I do not think I used Adobe PDF Maker before.
I use only Adobe PDF printer that is created during the install (in my case it came with CS3).
The “freeze” happens when the little window called “creating Adobe PDF” comes on and blue progress indicator starts moving to the right. Somewhere past half way it just gets stuck and I can wait one, two, three or more minutes and nothing will happen. Hide button sometimes works and sometimes does not. In any way after that everything freezes (means Acrobat and IE8 stuff) and the only way to clean it is to use Task Manager to end processes.
I use Acrobat extensively to print from web, from AutoCAD and from all MS Office applications for last nine ten years (since Acrobat 4) and this is first time I have any trouble.
What do you mean by "new hook"?
Why would it affect Acrobat 9 and not version 7?

CS3 Bridge & Photoshop freezing after an hours use.

G5/2.0ghz/dual/3gigRAM/OSX58: When I use CS3 Photoshop and CS3 Bridge at the same time, after about an hours use, Photoshop will freeze with the spinning beachball when I double click one image in Bridge to open it up in Photoshop. Anyone know of any similiar experiences? Lord, I do not want to go through the CS3 reinstallation if I do not have to. Talk about a mindless waste of time. jr

First thing to try when in trouble is refreshing the preferences. Restart
Bridge holding down option key and choose refresh preferences. Set them
again to your wishes and try again.
Also check your free space on your system, less then 10 % free space is
often causing trouble.

Adobe Camera Raw 5.7 is the latest for Photoshop CS4 Adobe - Photoshop : For Windows
The problem is that your new camera is supported by ACR 8.7 and only Photoshop CS6 and up supports this version.
So if you do not want to buy CS6 or subscribe to the $10/month Photography Program, you have to convert the CR2 files to DNG to work on them. Your original CR2s are untouched in the process, you just can't directly edit them in CS4, only the DNGs.
Maybe Canon offers editing software for their CR2s, but CS4 is not going to be updated and there is no way around that.
It's not what you want to hear, but that's the situation so far.
Maybe Elements or Lightroom has updated raw support for your camera, so I encourage you to visit those forums and ask.

Photoshop freeze? maybe the Firewall?!?
