Premier stutters, stop, starts, becomes unresponsive, and grinds to a halt

ok, i3770 3.5
24 gig ram 1333 ( 23.2 usable)
win 7 64x ultimate
Wacom touch pen interface
2x Ati Radeon 6870 1gb gddr5 ( usually un-crossfired)
premier pro 5.5.2
now, I more than meet the minimum needs for adobe premier, but sometimes, when I am using it, it grinds to a near halt and "becomes unresponsive" between simple actions. I checked online and it said to shut off the gpu setting, which I could not find on my version of adobe premier CS5.5. So, I figure my scratch disk drive is too full. so I free up 50 gig or so by uninstalling some games im not playing. I run my registry cleaner, and I still have the same problem.
Is it because I de-frag my HDD once a week ? did some of the files get shifted and this is causing major problems in performance ?
Im not sure if this is a hardware or a configuration problem.
What I am doing is creating my own cartoon in it. which I am sure , is not what this program is designed for, but I find it much more intuitive to use than flash for some reason. its a comfort / time issue for me.

this picture shows on the left what the key frames look like over view, and the right side has them under closer scrutiny, you can see how the small files for the lip syncing, are .... "zerg-like". the red line is in the same place, for reference.
Am I trying to make my pc do too much ? have I gone beyond consumer grade ability ?

any help would be greatly appreciated. thank you.

Hello again, I can see that your Mac is running last year's 2011 generation Macbook Air, am I correct? If older, then I suppose that it is because likely of the new operating system, with new software added in, I think it is stressing the RAM a lot. Also, likely is because your using a lot of your hard drive's storage. Other than that, you can go and configure your mac or get a new one. These are suggestions I could offer, on the other hand I think you will have to stop updating your operating system. Not software updates, but operating system. Means you maybe sticking to Mountain Lion for "a while". Sorry I couldn't be much of a help. But yes, those are old specs and you may be stressing your computer hardware.
Another option is to get expensive accessories like an external hard drive and buying more RAM. Your graphics card should be fine since your using an Air likely just for work and internet browsing.

I have adblock + ...when Firefox becomes unresponsive and I have to reboot, adblock disappears and I have to reinstall it each time. How do I stop this?

There are times when Firefox becomes unresponsive and I have to close down and restart. Upon restart, adblock + is gone and I have to reinstall it. How do I stop this from happening?

Hi,
Do you have other '''Extensions''' in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons'''??

Firefox has becomes unresponsive and slow after I tried to install addons (not installed)?

I recently format my computer and reinstall the windows 7, since this was the only solution that I know to fix the problem with Firefox (I previously had this problem too). I download the latest version of firefox 33.0.2 and install it . This version was super fast. But becomes unresponsive and slow, when I tried to install the add-ons. I visited the official website of firefox and search for the addons, when I tried to install some addons, Firefox crashed. From then on, it has becomes quite slow and can't restore previous sessions. Even to type my email address, It takes more than 5 minutes and becomes unresponsive frequently (after I typed each letter).
I want to know whether this is due to some viruses, or this version of firefox is not "stable"

Hey there,
We're sorry to hear that Firefox is crashing. In order to assist you better, please follow the steps below to provide us crash IDs to help us learn more about your crash.
#Enter ''about:crashes'' in the Firefox address bar and press Enter. A Submitted Crash Reports list will appear, similar to the one shown below.
#Copy the '''5''' most recent Report IDs that start with '''bp-''' and then go back to your forum question and paste that into the "Post a Reply" box. (Please don't take a screenshot of your crashes, just copy and paste the ID's. The below image is just an example of what your Firefox screen should look like)
[[Image:aboutcrashesFx29|width=520]]
<br><br>
After you've done this, you could try '''Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
*In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
*In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
Hope this helps!

After about 5 seconds, Firefox becomes unresponsive and lagging

Hi, I have a weird problem with my firefox. Everytime it starts, it will be alright for 5 seconds, then it will become unresponsive and lagging
- if you hover through the menu toolbars you wont be able to see the indicator arrow
- if you type something it is not responsive for a while, but then even when it works it won't show what you typed in unless you minimize the screen and then maximise it again.
What I have tried that didn't fix the problem:
- Removed and disabled all addons and extensions and themes
- Uninstall firefox and reinstall (using both windows and revo uninstaller)
- Going back to a couple of different versions
- Try using a new windows profile
- System restore
Interesting fact is if I start firefox in safe mode, it will fix the problem. But if I go back to normal mode, even with all addons, themes, extensions disabled, the problem is still there.
I have no idea what else to do and hopefully someone will be able to help
Thanks!

You can also try to disable hardware acceleration.

Apple TV will stream music but will not connect to iTunes library to stream movies or podcasts. During the unsuccessful connection process, iTunes becomes unresponsive and must be forced to quit.

Apple TV 3 will stream music via Home Sharing from iTunes on Mac running 10.6.8 but will not connect to iTunes library to stream movies or podcasts. When trying to connect, iTunes becomes unresponsive and must be forced to quit. ATV will stream movies purchased through the ATV but not those purchased through or ripped/copied onto the Mac. I've tried fixes suggested for similar problems (rebooting ATV and Mac, signing out then back into iTunes Store) to no success. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

This is the most bogus example of Apple rip-off EVER. They do not advertise this *feature* and yet expect people to invest in an Apple ECOSYSTEM? My experience with Apple TV using a central media "server" (a dedicated Mac Mini) has been atrocious. I continually get "Cannot connect..." messages and with typical Apple "it just works" mentality, there is no reason stated. I HATE APPLE TV and I HATE APPLE. Peddle your crapple somewhere else.

3D TV 42TL515U Remote becomes unresponsive and TV crashes while watching Netflix

Back in March I ordered a brand-new in-the-box 3D TV 42TL515U TV. The TV has been running great except starting last weekend (Oct. 7th)
I noticed the remote become completely unresponsive to the TV except if I held in the power button.
The remote would work fine when the TV was turned off and turned back on for about 10 minutes and then become unresponsive.
Changing the batteries in the remote had zero effect to correct this issue.
While I was trying to watch Netflix, the TV would crash and shut off and turn back on every 12 minutes (I timed it).
I get this issue when the TV is either hard-wired or wirelessly connected to my network.
I have the lasted TV patch/software version 2.2.2 Oct 26 2011 - 11:34
What can I do to get my TV functiong properly again?

I don't understand why we have to call "customer support" when this isn't an individual issue, its a universal one that needs to be addressed with a firmware update.
This is just awful on Toshiba's part that they can't even push out fixes for issues like this. It's not like we're asking for new content or updated codecs' to play more file types... THIS IS ABOUT COMMON FUNCTIONALITY.
And what's more convenient, Toshiba offers no online chat or even a support email. Awesome job!

I have a refurbished iPhone 5 (which I got less than a year ago) and the screen becomes unresponsive and there is a purplish haze that appears on the phone when I try to use it. Hasn't been dropped or cracked.. What could it be? help!!

I Have a refurbished iPhone 5 that is less than a year old (apple replaced my first one due to a battery fault) but this one has all of a sudden become unresponsive most times and a purple haze has come thru the background on the lCd. The cursor goes abit cranky sometimes too and jumps from Window to window?! It has never been dropped or screen has never been replaced either no exposure to water or sun. This happened after I upgraded to the new iOS 8.1. I don't think it was the update but I've never had good results from updating the iPhone anyway..
HELP?? I have an appt with Apple tomorrow but don't know if I can wait that long!!
THanks in advance.

IPhone 5 touchscreen becomes unresponsive and requires to lock/unlock after updating to iOS 8 and 8.0.3

While using the phone frequently the screen becomes unresponsive, only the home button works and I need to lock and then unlock to get it to respond again.
I have an iPhone 5 64GB.
it's really annoying.
I've restarted the phone a few times but the issue persists.

Thanks for the tip but the problem persists.
I restored the phone as new with iOS 8.0.2, the freeze problem appeared.
Then I restored the backup, the problem persists, but I have the impression that is a bit less frequent, I'll confirm in the following days.

I just factory restored my iPod 5 touch and when I plug it into iTunes to restore the back up I made, iTunes becomes unresponsive and closes. But when I unplug the iPod, it starts working again. Using Windows 8 and iTunes is updated, please help.

I just factory restored my iPod 5 touch and when I plug it into iTunes to back it up, iTunes stops responding and closes. This only occurs when the iPod is plugged in, when it isn't, iTunes works fine. I am using Windows 8 and iTunes is updated (as of this posting). Any suggestions on getting around this? Thank you.

Also, when I put it through the Windows diagnostic, it lists an "incompatible program" WHILE my iPod is plugged in.

Weird issue: my ipod lost all its music, itunes does not respond to ipod, and itunes itself becomes unresponsive, and then I cannot open itunes again after I forcefully close it

I just don't understand how all these problems roll into one issue. One day my ipod was unresponsive so i reset it and then all the songs disappeared. That happended before, but it became fine after I connected to itunes, but once I connect it to itunes it pops up but itunes is loading for etenrity and does not respond. If I close if forcefully then itunes won't open at all. cursor indicates loading for a second and then stops.
What is this?

When i said reboot, I meant "restarts my Ipod".
I tried installing driver to no success. What could be wrong? My Ipod just doesn't communicate with my computer since the latest Itunes was installed.

2008 Mac Pro Monitor loses picture, computer becomes unresponsive and the fans run fast.

My early 2008 Mac Pro is dropping the signal to the monitor and the fan on the back begins to run at max speed. I have to do a force shut down and start again. It will then run ok for several hours. This typically happens when it wakes up, I log in and begin doing a task. However, it has been known to do this at a random time. This has progressed to a once a day event mostly in the morning after it has been sleeping for several hours.
I pulled the cover when it did it last and pressed the diagnostic button. LED's for the GPU and PWRG did not light.
I am wondering if it is the power supply beginning to fail or if it is the logic board or, is it something else.
Can anyone help with this?
Thank you

When using the Hardware Monitor software (from http://www.bresink.com/osx/216202/Docs-en/faq.html ) -- i emphasized the stuff in red
The sensor X shows the reading Y. Is this normal?
If you want to find out whether a sensor value is within normal limits, please select the menu item Window > Show Overview (or press ⌘+1) and look for the limits in the third and fourth columns of the sensor table. They contain the known official limits Apple has specified for readings acquired at the given sensor locations. If no limit is given in the table, this either means that it does not make sense to specify a limit for this particular sensor (e.g. the battery capacity should not have limits), or Apple hasn't published any specifications for this sensor.
Note that all up-to-date Macintosh models automatically shut down or enter sleep mode if one of the readings exceeds a critical limit. For this reason it is impossible that your computer can be damaged in an overtemperature condition.
For old computers without temperature managment, no limits have been specified by Apple. In this case use the following limits as orientation:
Most older G3 or G4 processors are designed for a maximum operating temperature of 105 degrees Celsius (221 degrees Fahrenheit), measured at the chip die of the CPU.
G4 processors of type 7455 or later (typically used in Macintosh systems with 867 MHz and above) are designed for a maximum operating temperature of 65 degrees Celsius (149 degrees Fahrenheit), also measured at the chip die of the CPU.
Most desktop hard drives are specified for a maximum operating temperature of 55 degrees Celsius (131 degrees Fahrenheit). For exact information, use the Drive Overview window (⌘+8) to get the manufacturer and model code of your hard drive, and then direct your web browser to the manufacturer's web site to download the official data sheet for this drive. The temperature limits are always specified.
==================================
And don't forget you can look at the fan speeds (there are several in the Mac Pro) - that sometimes will give you a hint something abnormal is going on if the fans start running a lot.

Firefox keyboard becomes unresponsive and menus (such as right clicking on links or file, edit menus) show an outline border but no inner area

safe made no extensions doesn't fix... seems to reoccur even in new profile. computer is xp running on macbook with boot camp, using avast antivirus
May work fine for a bit but eventually stuff stops working.
Keyboard can be used, but input not recognized... have to pound keys repeatedly
google chrome works fine no issues

So we have finally fixed the issue and are currently cracking out the bubbly!
It turned out to be the network path shotcut I was using to access the shared drive where I was editing the files from. I work for a restaurant so we have a shared drive where each site can access their files, this is where the food menu files reside and I had created a shortcut that, although accessed the correct area did it using a path which had a double backslash in it.
The true path for the shared drive is \\hm\mydocs\restaurant\menufile.indd and this is the shortcut I was using to open the file up from. For all other files like Word, Excel, even other Adobe programs like PSE10, and Lightroom it seems to work fine. For some reason InDesign does not like this path with the double backslash in. As soon as I changed the shortcut path to just m:\ (the letter of the shared drive on the network) everything was working again and we can all sleep, it was driving us mental. Re-installed windows, InDesign created a new network user profile the works.
I hope this may help someone else in a similar situation in the future

My screen becomes unresponsive and freezes

Screen will not respond and freezes. Sometimes it goes bonkers; random apps opening at will!

Try taking a fresh start sort of approach by closing all of the apps on the iPad and then reset the device. While it's unlikely, there might be an app that is causing some sort of conflict and closing apps might help.
In iOS 5 or 6 - Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
For iOS 7 - To close an app, drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

In Windows7 (64bit) Firefox becomes unresponsive and the vertical scroll turns black before the crash.

I have about 30 crashes with the plugins disabled. This usually happens with two to three tabs open.

Hello Steve.
I'm looking at your information and I'm not finding your Firefox profile particularly healthy... You have a plugin called "My Web Search Plugin Stub for 32-bit Windows" installed. You also have your default search engine set to mywebsearch.com, which is not nearly as good as Google, which leads me to think you didn't really configure these on purpose... Is that correct?
