Preview is freezing and acting weird

Ever since I've upgraded to Leopard, Preview is acting really strangely with PDFs. It freezes constantly for a long time, then finally completes the action. It never quits itself.
It happens when I'm scrolling through, searching for a word, almost anything. These are not huge files, just articles. Anywhere from 50 to a few hundred kb. I never had this problem in the old version of Preview. Any ideas?

Create a new admin user account, log into it, and see if the problem occurs there. If not, then you have conflicts between various preferences files or a corrupted one. See the steps I posted for resolving these at:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4703015
If so, it's system-wide and I suggest manually downloading and reapplying the 10.5.1 update.

Lightroom freezing and acting up

Lightroom is constantly freezing. I've installed the latest updates, but it appears to continue to act up. It no longer shows where I've added brush strokes to my images. It also displays the picture's file name in big white letters at the top right of the image, which is just really annoying, mostly because I can't figure out how to get it off. The biggest problem is the freezing. It freezes so bad that I have to force my computer to shut down.
Can anyone help me fix lightroom, the brush issue and file name display issue?
Thank you
Oh, and the latest update I installed was lightroom 4.4. I also have a windows computer.

H will hide or unhide the "pins" for your brushing.
Letter I (eye) will cycle through different display options for the text in the corner of the photo (but on my computer its on the left, not on the right)
Frequent freezes/crashes are usually not Lightroom but an operating system or hardware issue. Could be any one of a gazillion things. I would start by making sure your video driver is up to date.

Preview app freezing and slowing down MBP

Since I updated to OS Mavericks my preview app has not been functioning properly. When the app is open when viewing PDFs a window (accompanied by a progress bar) pops up quite frequently that says "Saving changes... '#' documents remaining", with the # sign representing any number of documets. Often, the number of documents "remaining to be saved" progressively increases from 1 to 8 or so, despite there being only one document open. While the app is doing these "auto saves" my computer is slowed down significantly and while these interuptions occur I am usually unable to do anything else.
I will also add that the size of the PDF files that I view are rather large, on average 70-80 MB, although I'm not sure if that is the reason for the issue because before I updated to Mavericks I didn't have this problem. And the problem does also seem to occur with smaller sized files as well.
My computer usage is usually minimal when this occurs, typically only Safari is open in the background. I was advised to reset my SMC, which I did, but the problem is still occurring. Any additional advice or solutions would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Update: The Preview app is using a lot of memory and I don't know why.
With activity monitor on, I notice that the memory usage for the app spikes considerably when viewing PDFs, especially when I scroll, exactly the same problem as you, loveceratops. When a PDF is initially openend, the activity monitor shows memory usage around 50 MB, but when I scroll within the PDF the memory usage shoots all the way up to 500 or 600 MB. It's at this point that the glitches preciptating in Preview begin to occur.
I've tried deleting/recreating the preview app's ".plist" files in the "Preferences" and "Containers" folders, but that has not solved the issue. I want to try to reinstall Preview, and I just might, but I'm also considering reinstalling OS Mavericks since that may be easier; but I'm concerned that the same problem would still keep happening since I'd be recovering all my files from Time Machine after the reinstall.
Any help solving this issue would be much appreciated, thanks in advance. This is a very frustrating problem.

Hey, I restarted my macbook and everything seems to be working fine with Safari now. If it acts up again I'll post the log and bump this thread.

15" Macbook Pro (Early 2008) Freezing and Acting Strange

Hello All,
I don't have the original disks, and cannot run a hardware test, so no idea what is wrong. My computer will freeze frequently, often times when I am trying to do multiple things, watch video (flash like hulu), or try to access the items like wifi, battery, date/time or spotlight at the top of my screen. The computer also occassionaly will not respond to the trackpad or keyboard. The sound icon also frequently X's out, and I cannot adjust the volume from my keyboard.
I have tried an unsuccessful clean install of Lion, was able to recover from Time Capsule, and it was behaving like this even with snow leopard. Actually, ever since getting a new Logic Board from apple on a previous service. (Sent in for a top case issue, and for some reason they replaced the top case and logic board...)
I called Apple Care the other day, they reccomended the clean install, but the computer is out of warranty. My only saving grace would be if this IS actually a logic board issue from there replacement and they were willing to service it again based on that.
Anybody experience anything similar or have any ideas?
Thanks.

Please boot in safe mode and test. Same problems? After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode.)

Macbook Pro 2010 Slowing down and acting weird for no apparent reason.

I got this computer in September 2010 new from apple. Macbook Pro 15", 2.4 GHz Intel Core i5. memory: 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3 build: 10J869 version 10.6.7
Recently it seems to have hit a wall (running very slow). When I try to open any program it takes 10 times longer than normal...Always beach balling. This isn't normal. I have not been running many programs besides firefox and itunes lately. And The occasional Word Processor document. Sometimes when I type the computer will go very slow letter by letter. (it takes a few seconds to type one word) Also, sometimes it will work normally. I haven't had any weird error messages. Although, just a few minutes ago I was in Firefox and the words at the top of the screen vanished. (File Edit View History Bookmarks Tools Window-----all disappear)
Please help, the computer is not very old, I don't understand why this is happening.

A slow computer can be caused by a multitude of issues. The first thing I'd try is to check in Activity Monitor (Application - Utilities - Activity Monitor) and run it while you are doing your normal computing, what I'd recommend looking for are 2 things:
1. Look to see if there is an application or applications that is taking a lot of %CPU. For example if you noticed FireFox or iTunes using 85% of your CPU that is a huge red flag something is wrong.
2. Next click the System Memory tab towards the bottom and see how much FREE RAM you have during normal computing. If it's 500MB or below then your system is starved for RAM.
Report back what you find and then we can test some other items.

My iPod is now both freezing and making weird screeching sounds.

Well, I recently had to reformat my iPod. Earlier, I said I dropped it. Well, apparently that has really messed it up. For one thing, I can't play any songs without having my iPod freeze up in the middle, and every so often when I try resetting it, I hear this disturbing screech come from inside it. What the heck is wrong with my iPod? Will I need to get another music player? I've tried formatting the poor thing, er, 3 times now, and it hasn't done a thing. I'm really getting annoyed by this problem; I just want it to work again.
What can I do to fix it? Keep reseting it? Download a program and fix it? Please, for the love of god, I'm losing my sanity over this thing.

i think my ipod is having the same trouble as yours.
the ipod:
1. freezes up between songs
2. shows up a white screen saying "www.apple.com/support" when first starting, have to wait and restart
3. makes a screeching sound often, almost like a grinding sound
4. now the thing won't restore for some reason
i have also dropped it a few times
sry for taking this time, but if you can please tell me what is the problem when someone does answer? and if i find out the problem, maybe i'll tell you too. thnx

Apple TV Freezing and Acting Strange

My apple TV is 2.5 years old and its starting to do strange things. It freezes constantly when trying to navigate to my music and displays tiny white dots on the screen...also movies don't always playback properly as they freeze.
I have restored to factory default and that didn't work. I love this product but I will be reluctant to buy a new one if it has such a short life span.

Yes, letting it cool down helps tremendously.
It certainly implies a heat related issue, chances are that it'll just get worse over time then fail.
My iMac developed graphical glitches after about 15 months that were helped by ramping up internal fans, but eventually it got more and more unstable to the extent I could not use it at all. I think the GPU was at fault though it may have been the logic board - as GPU was soldered to logic board whole logic board had to be replaced anyway.
With AppleTV's I don't think they're economical to repair so Apple don't offer it for out of warranty devices.
There is a tiny fan in AppleTv - it's always possible that has failed too.

New Macbook pro keeps freezing and acting up?

I just got my nre 13in macbook pro last thursday (June14) and since then it was froze thrice. One was when I was downloading a game demo, and two more times when I was trying to watch a movie online. The whole system just froze each time, and I had to force shut down by holding down the power button then powering it back up. Then most recently, when I was on a skype call, the whole screen just blacked out, and my call was dropped etc, and it turned back on by itself after 10-20 seconds. I'm new to this whole mac thing, is there anything I should do? Or well, what should I do?

How much RAM do you have? Are you running off battery or by MagSafe...?
What is forgotten is that OSX is based on UNIX server, well all UNIX can act as a server but if it has a lot of App open it will like Windows use the disk space for virtual memory and this too can topple OSX. If you have a slow internal drive that will most certainly make for these problems.
I'd make sure that all but a few Apps are running. I'd also reboot your WiFi router, unplug it from the wall and the cable or ADSL modem and disconnect the modems from the connection too. Then after tne minutes reconnect them all. Also if it's cable call the company and have them remote reboot your modem too.
Aside from that you might have a rare MB problem, try zapping the PRAM.....
Failing that if you have just bought it take it ASAP to the Genius bar and get some help. Apple customer care is what makes Apple the best company to buy from. I'm not too fond of the design leading function but Apple care is wonderful and you should go to your local store. Do this while your computer can still be returned: it means they will exchange you computer if there is a hardware problem rather than make you wait for a repair....go now!:)
And you are not alone despite anyone telling you this never happens to Apple products. I've had this problem more than once and Apple took care of it.
Try rebooting and just running one App before you take it into the apple store. Good luck!

Macbook freezes and makes weird repetitive noise

Hi,
My macbook has been making weird repetitive noises when I'm on wireless internet. I'm not exactly sure it's the wireless internet that's the problem. Whenever I try to download something it happens, and I get the pinwheel. Then I can't do anything so I just restart.

Macs arn't designed to run with a full drive. They need plenty of space on the drive in order for virtual memory to work. At least 20Gb. If I were you I would make some space before you damage your Mac. If you don't know what the files are that are filling it, use a prog called What Size.

Window wont close, and acts weird

hello,
I have a swing app (application, not applet) that works just like it should, except after I use it (if I just open and close the program, everything is fine) it won't close. In other words, when I actualy use it for what it was meant, it won't close. The frame just goes blank (back-ground gray) and won't close. I have to force-quit it. I've tested my app on mac os x, linux and winxp, and winxp is the only system that seems to have a problem. Everything is java 1.4.2.
Any insight would be most welcom... ;)
Peace,
Thom

Sorry.. I do get the problem in other os's it just manifests differently. In mac os X it just stops responding, but the frame doesn't go blank. If it matters, it is a multi-threaded app, but I am careful to destroy my threads when I am done with them...
If code will help, let me know, and I'll post it.

Losing network connection and NIC acts weird from warm/hot weather/temperatures?

Hello.
Is there a known issue on MSI P43 NEO3-F (MSI-7514) motherboards' onboard RealTek RTL8168C (P)/8111C(P) PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC network disconnecting and acting weird during warm/hot weather?
I noticed lately and back on 1/11/2009 night when weather got warm/hot (e.g., my room can get over 85F degrees, but lately it has been 80F degrees), my network would lose its connection. See http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/5580/screenshots.gif for a few SpeedFan's sensor readings when the incidents occurred. I have never seen this happen when the weather is cooler (60-70F degrees in my room).
I also think this only happens if I am using the PC lightly (nothing intensive) like watching fullscreen videos (video overlay), surfing the Web, etc. I don't see any errors or evidences that it happens when idled (e.g., asleep or out). Uptime doesn't seem to matter since I have seen days to 3.5 hours.
I tried upgrading network driver twice (e.g., Realtek_XP_5714_0219 from
http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=13&PFid=5&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false ...), disabling Kerio Personal Firewall v2.1.5 (XP's disabled already), releasing and renewing IP address (works, but still no network -- can't even ping my router!), unplugging and replugging the cat5 cable (do see the network port lights on), touching the network jack and hardware inside and outside of the case (not hot), trying another cat5 cable and a network port on a switch instead router's), changing from "Minimal Power Management" to full power (no underclocking/slowing down when idled), etc.
During the disconnections, I tried:

I also noticed the disconnections usually start with red X icon in my taskbar with its bubble and then later the long disconnection even though no red X (1 GB and connected). If I were to disconnect the cat5 cable from NIC, then it wouldn't even detect it is missing the cable!
The only way to fix this was to reboot (best way and last longer) OR disable network connection and re-enable it (Windows XP's Network Connections) or the NIC itself (Device Manager), but that doesn't always last long (maybe a minute). Example of my pings right after disabling and re-enabling NIC:

Force your NIC to run at 100Mbps full duplex and see how it goes.
Check your router / switch ports as well as cables.
I will try 100 Mbps if it happens again. So far, it hasn't occurred after installing the driver supplied by MSI's Web site and not RealTek's Web site. The room temperatures even got warmer like 83F degrees.
As for router and switch, what am I checking for? Other computers didn't have any problems. As for cat5 cables, I already tried another one like I said in my original post.

Lumia 720: Power and camera button act weird

Hi,
My Nokia Lumia 720 is acting weird.
The camera button doesn't work and so does the power button.
However if I press the volume down and the power button simultaneously the button does work.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
I've already brought the phone back to the default settings.
I'm running the latest developer preview if that matters.

My MacBook was acting weird so I restarted it and when I login a white screen flashes and goes back to the login page. Help?

My MacBook was acting weird like sometimes I would log on and I wouldn't be able to type my password for a couple seconds,but it usually logged in after that. Then I left my computer open after installing the recent update after that all my applications were not responding. So I shut it down, when I turned it back on about an hour later it went to this loading screen and then to the login like usual. After I tried logging in a white screen flashed and it went back to the login/ password screen like nothing happened. Any ideas on what happened and what I can do to fix it?

Reinstall OS X;
Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

I have an IPhone 4, and I wanted to reset it, but couldn't do it via computer because the "find my IPhone" was turned on. So I went to ICloud > Find My IPhone and just erased my phone from there. The was acting weird but I finally got to a black screen with the spinning circle. And it won't advance. I can't just hold the sleep button and home button down because my sleep button is broken! Any help? I have reset my phone before.
