PPro very slow using linked AE files when AE running

I'm pretty sure I have seen this issue before, but checking if there are any further developments. PPro timelines containg AE linked files slow to an unusable crawl if AE is open. Quite AE and all is working a s expected, which is a pain because then yuou have to open AE again to make any changes. This only seems to occur on Mac. I also work on a clients PC and all works as expected. (No comments about switching to PC thanks).
I think there was talk that the problem was with the Mac OS and the hope was that Yosemite might fix things.
Has anyone tried Yosemite? Adobe seem to be saying it's OK, but I have a few trust issues and lots of 3rd party plugins... and a pretty full dance card, so I'm somewhat risk averse.
cheers

Hi Kevin... yes running on the latest versions of CC... I must say I hadn't checked how it runs with the latest versions... there is some improvement from previous CC versions, but there still seems to be a noticeable increase in performance without AE in the background. Would the the RAM allocation have any effect? It looks to be that the Adobe applications sort it out between themselves. cheers Pete.

    Hello Albert, see how many of these you can answer...
    See if the Disk is issuing any S.M.A.R.T errors in Disk Utility...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH7029
    Open Activity Monitor in Applications>Utilities, select All Processes & sort on CPU%, any indications there?
    How much RAM & free space do you have also, click on the Memory & Disk Usage Tabs.
    Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.
    In the Memory tab, are there a lot of Pageouts?

  • How can I do to acquire and save date in the same time and in the same file when I run continual my VI without interrupti​on.

    I've attached a VI that I am using to acquire amplitude from Spectrum analyzerse. I tried to connect amplitude ouput to the VI Write Characters To File.vi and Write to Spreadsheet File.vi. Unfortunately when I run continual this VI without interruption, labview ask me many time to enter a new file name to save a new value.
    So, How can I do to aquire and save date in the same time and in the same file when I run continual my VI for example during 10 min.
    Thank you in advance.

    Hi,
    Your VI does work perfectly. Unfortunately this not what I want to do. I've made error in my last comment. I am so sorry for this.
    So I explain to you again what I want to do exactly. I want to acquire amplitude along road by my vehicle. I want to use wheel signal coming from vehicle to measure distance along road. Then I acquire 1 amplitude each 60 inches from spectrum analyzer.
    I acquire from PC parallel port a coded wheel signal coming from vehicle (each period of the signal corresponds to 12 Inches). Figure attached shows the numeric signal coming from vehicle, and the corresponding values “120” and “88” that I can read from In Port vi.
    So I want to acquire 1 time amplitude from spectrum analyser each 5
    period of the signal that I am acquiring from parallel port.
    So fist I have to find how can I count the number of period from reading the values “120” and “88” that I am acquiring from In Port (I don’t know the way to count a number of period from reading values “120” and “88”).
    Here is a new algorithm.
    1) i=0 (counter: number of period)
    2) I read value from In Port
    3) If I acquire a period
    i= i+1 (another period)
    4) If i is multiple of 5 (If I read 5 period)
    acquire 1 time amplitude and write to the same
    file this amplitude and the corresponding distance
    Distance = 12*i). Remember each period of signal
    Corresponds to 12 Inches).i has to take these
    values: 5,10,15,20,25,35,40,45,50,55,60............
    5) Back to 2 if not stop.
    Thank you very much for helping me.

  • How can I save my data and the date,the time into the same file when I run this VI at different times?

    I use a translation stage for the experiment.For each user in the lab the stage position (to start an experiment) is different.I defined one end of the stage as zero. I want to save the position , date and time of the stage with respect to zero.I want all these in one file, nd everytime I run it it should save to the same file, like this:
    2/12/03 16:04 13567
    2/13/03 10:15 35678
    So I will track the position from day to day.If naybody helps, I appreciate it.Thanks.

    Hi,
    I know the function "write to spreadsheet file.vi"
    can append the data
    to file. You can use the "concatenate strings" to display the date,
    time as well as data... Hope this help.

  • IMac is very slow and sluggish, keeps churning when editing files or on internet

    My iMac is running slow and sluggish, it takes several minutes to edit a word document or search the internet ... intermittently it runs great but productivity is near zero when to edit a sentence in a Word document takes several minutes.  When typing an email the cursor stops and if you keep typing it eventually fills in what was typed even though you can't see it when typing. Ran Etrecheck ... report is attached.

  • Very slow working with eps files over new network

    Please help!!!
    Our IT has recently upgraded us from a OSX server to a 2 Terabyte SNAP SERVER 520.
    I am using the only INTEL Mac in the department (we have another 10+ G5 PPCs running 10.4), and the only one using OSX 10.5. Since changing to the new server, I am also the only one with several file saving/opening issues.
    I believe this is a network issue.
    It is with mostly ADOBE products and we all know they will not support, working over the network. Due to the volume of files, I simply cannot drag files to my HD, and work locally. It is not practical. I also know that we have not had any issues in the past, and don't see why I can't get to the root of the problem.
    **The most obvious issue is Illustrator .eps files.**
    I can open and save .ai files in good time both locally, and over the network. There is no difference either way. HOWEVER, if it is an .eps file working over the network is not practical. I get the spinning wheel for about 2 minutes each time I open, save, or make a change. It is VERY slow. Working on eps files locally is fine (about the same speed as .ai files), but as soon as it hits the server, it is painfully slow to do anything.
    Additionally, when saving Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign AND Quark 7 files (direct to the network), I am regularly getting "Could not save because write access was not granted", or "Could not save becasue unexpected end-of-file was encountered", or "Could not save because the file is already in use or as left open" type errors.
    I simply then click 'OK', and then hit save again, and it either gives me the same message, or it goes into 'save as' mode which lets me save the file (same name, and same location, but the original file has disappeared).
    I am connected to the server IP address through afp:// but have also tried cifs://. IT have removed all access to the server through smb://, so I cannot try this.
    ANY help is appreciated.

    With regard to the EPS issue, I think I may have found the source of the problem for SMB users: the Suitcase Fusion plug-in.
    Did you make any progress on these issues?

  • CS4 very slow image linking.

    We are having a efficiency issues with CS4.
    We have a large IDML document with 80 pages and 1800 images. Each image is about 24kb jpg.
    If we open the document and InDesign can find images, it will take hours to open the document. And it is very annoying that InDesign stops responding and doesn't show even a progressbar while opening the document.
    If we open the document and InDesign cannot find images, it will open the document in few minutes. Then if we fix the location of images and say "Update all links" or "Relink" broken links, InDesign will start fetching the images but it again takes hours..
    It doesn't matter if the images are on the server or local machine.
    If we update the links in smaller chunks, it will take a few minutes to update all the links. Little more testing shows that the time the InDesign takes to fetch the images increases exponentially when the amount of images increases. That seems a bug to me.
    I'm not sure what InDesign is doing when it fetches images but I know it becomes way too slow and it propably does too much.
    Is this fixed in CS5? And if not, please fix this.
    We are running CS4 InDesign 6.0.6 in Mac OSX 10.5.8 in Mac pro (2.66GHz with 8Gb memory)

    http://193.252.5.30/tmp/cat2.jpg (24Ko : 295x551
    pixels)
    I wrote a little program which load and scale the
    image.
    Here is the result :
    cat1.jpg
    Time to load image : 171 ms.
    Time to scale image : 157 ms.
    cat2.jpg
    Time to load image : 1157 ms.
    Time to scale image : 2578 ms.How can this huge difference explained ?
    Thanks for your help.Using the Netbeans profiler, I can see that for some reason, the cat2.jpg image is resulting in a hot spot where the scale() method ends up performing a color conversion via ColorConvertOp. Placing a debugger breakpoint on this call and debugging the code using cat1.jpg, the method is never called. So, there is something different about the color models of the two images, or there is a bug in the image reading code that is misinterpreting the image data.
    This bug may be what you are seeing:

  • CS4 apps are VERY slow to open Windows file browser with File Open or File Save As commands

    We are running CS4 on Windows 7 with all available updates installed.   Photoshop and the other CS4 applications are VERY slow to open a Windows file browsing window to select files when File Open or File Save As menu options are run -- it can take as long as a minute or two for the window to open.  Once the window opens and a file is selected, then opening or saving the file is very quick.  The location of the default directory, whether it is on a local drive or a network drive, makes no difference.  Any suggestions as to what the problem might be?

    The link that I posted earlier is off.  Read this one
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2501584.  I discovered in my network that the MS Office File Validation Patch made excel crawl when opening over the network though nothing else changed. At the time I was opening Excel on Office 2003.
    You can manually turn this off by editing the registry and tunring it off.  Going forward I skipped the patch to keep my sanity.  Not sure if this is the same as your issue, but the support article will go into detail how to either have Fix it
    clear the issue or change the proper registry keys.
    Hope this helps

  • Very slow speed during transferring files between two MacBook Pro by AirPort

    I have a MacBooc Pro md101 and my friend have MacBook Pro early 2011 model, when we transfering something a speed is very slow,3 month ago i've the same model like his model ( Early 2011 ) and speed was very fast by airport, but now is slow ! Anyone help me or say why ? Thank you...

    If it is wireless to wireless transfer it will go at less than half of the slowest connection..
    Check each mac link speed to the Express.. if either of them is far away or using 2.4ghz instead of 5ghz you will lose lots of speed.

  • Very slow rederting of PDF files

    Keynote rendering of pdf gives amazing quality. However with a PDF which contains scientific data and many line objects it can be very very slow. For example a file which is 500KB can take 11 sec to render.
    Exporting from Illustrator to tiff or PSD (150 dpi) usually result in noticable quality reduction, and also takes all the advantage of being able to presernt PDF in the first place.
    Is there any simple workaround?
    Thanks

    It seems that there a difference between the PDF rendering engine of keynote (which I suspect is the same one of preview) and the one of Adobe. The same PDF could be compressed to a very small file and open in a snap in Acrobat. But for preview it took few second to render. After cutting bits in an out I found the problematic object and remade it. This sloved the problem.
    As a side effect I found out that by using Show package content, you can find the pasted PDF and edit it directly with Illustrator, without having to cut and paste or save and insert.

  • Adding Current Date Using A Prologue File When Converting to a PDF

    I'm trying to embed the current date on a postscript file (.ps) to pdf conversion using a prologue file (prologue.ps) in a certian position on the page. What is the script necessary to acommplish this task? Is this similar to the case that is still open regarding a "dynamic date stamp"?

    Hi Bill -- thanks for your reply!
    When I check the Document Properties on Acrobat I can see that the fonts used in the document (Cambria, Times and Windings) are listed as "Embedded Subset" in the Fonts panel. The machine it was created on did use an earlier version of OS X and an old version of Word, but it seems to have the proper fonts...

  • Keeping a linked numbers file when moved to a new network

    It seems Pages keeps track of where a numbers chart comes from until you move it across a network (or email). Does anyone know how to re-establish links to the charts for updating?
    cheers

    When I want to keep links between two or more files, I always store them in a disk image (wxyz.dmg).
    So, the links are kept when I move them on any kind of media.
    It's so simple that I wonder why few users think to that.

  • I just bought my Iphone 5, why is it that it is very slow or hard to connect when nearby wifi stations unlike the Ipad/Ipod units?

    I just bought my Iphone 5, why is it that it is very slow or connot connect at all when nearby WIFI stations unlike the Ipad/Ipod units?

    Have already taken the necessary steps but to no avail.  I would like to take this oppurtunity to inquire from Iphone 5 users if they experienced the same..the gadget is very slow in picking up WIFI signal unlike the Ipad/Ipod units.. If this is the case then its a big draw back for Iphone 5..it's also draining its battery fast.

  • Mavericks very slow to link to web sites

    I My MacBook Pro is very slow to load websites but this is not the case on my iPad and iPhone.. I am running OS X 10.9.4.
    i Saw answers to this problem in earlier forums but the latest was July 2013 and are now out of date as the suggestions given for resetting Safari are different and do not exist .
    any help would be welcome.

    Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
    Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If not, do that now and see whether there's any change.
    If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    and confirm. Any change?
    If you're running OS X 10.9 or later, select the Advanced tab in the Preferences window and uncheck the box marked
              Stop plug-ins to save power
    Any change?
    Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
    Log out and log back in. Any change?
    Enable Private Browsing in the Safari menu. Any change?
    Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
    If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
    If Parental Controls is active for any user, please turn it off and test. Any change?
    If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
    Again, if only Safari is involved, open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Safari, if it's checked. Any change?
    If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
    If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?
