Problems with other programs that run bad in processor intel

Hello my friends I bought one mac mini Intel Core duo to optimize my work like designer, but programs like Adobe photoshop, indesing Cs, give me problems and it is put very slow. I have in my office a Powerpc G5 of 1,6 uni processor and have installed same programs. Why they run very slow in mini mac if it has a double processor?

They are running slowly because none of the Adobe products have yet been released in a format native to the Macs with Intel processors. Adobe's applications are all still only native to the PowerPC processor and so must run in the Rosetta PPC emulation mode, which is much slower than native software. Unfortunately, you'll have to live with this until Adobe releases Intel-native versions of their Mac software, currently not scheduled for release until some time in mid-2007.
The same will apply to any other software you have; if it's not what Apple calls a Universal Binary which has the programming code for both PowerPC and Intel-based Macs, it's going to run more slowly than would software that's native to the Intel processors. Check with the application's developer about the availability of an Intel-native version.

  • Does anyone know how to convert a Filemaker flat file to some other program that runs on Lion?

    I have a flat file of 200 recipes in Filemaker. It is searchable and prints the recipes on 4x6 cards.
    How can I get the same funtionality without getting an expensive new version of FM that runs on Lion?

    In order to password protect files or folders, you need to create an encrypted disk image. Then what ever is copied to the disk image will be protected.

  • Problem with a program that just worked before....

    Hello,
    (I'm a beginner !)
    I have a program to command 2 motors and collect the speed of each axis and the load applied between them.
    The hardware works well (checked all the sensors) and the program worked well until 5 days...
    Now my problem is : I want to see the load in real time (using a DBL numeric indicator linked to a DAQ Assistant that just collect the load datas)
    AND in the DAQ Assistant (double click on it), in see the load in real time when i use the button "RUN/STOP"
    but on  the front panel, when i click on the button "RUN" the indicator is just fix on the first value and doesn't indicate anything...
    I checked the connector between my DAQ and my N. Ind. and I changed the N. Ind. and tried to update the Channels in my DAQ to see if the problem came from that but nothing is repaired now... after 3 days on this problem
    Thank you if you can help me...
    Solved!

    A couple of things.  I would change your DAQ setup for the force to be "1 Sample (On Demand)", because it appears that you are only reading one sample every time you go through the loop.  I would think your other DAQ setups need this too.
    I also assume that you are using the loop speed to control the sample rate of your acquisition of the other data channels.
    Is all of your acquisition occuring from one card or seperate cards?  Some cards don't allow simulatenous tasks/acquisition.  I guess the DAQ assistant takes care of that.
    You may also want to take a look at the Continous Measurement and Logging Template.  It may be well suited for what you are trying to work on.

    the problem I have since I upgraded to Mavericks version 10.9.1
    The problem appears only with Mail not with other programs, not even with my browser.
    When I try to zoom the text of an e-mail I received or sent , I can no longer use the keys Command + to enlarge the text, although I can reduce it with Command -.
    As I have a problem with my eyes, This is a serious matter for me.
    When I write an e-mail, if I select text and press Command +, it just displaces the text to the right.
    Now, my husband has a USB keyboard. If he connects it to my computer, his regular Command + does not work either, but  he uses the extended keyboard, then it works. Unfortunately, he needs it for a musical application which does not work with a wireless keyboard.

    Firefox 3.6.4 and 3.6.6 use a process called, "plugin-container.exe" which was using up most of my CPU when I opened up multiple tabs that contained Adobe Flash files, and caused Firefox to lock up.
    My solution was to use Firefox 3.5.10 which you can get from the Mozilla website at [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html]
    I am using Adobe Flash 10.1.53.64 without any problem in this version of Firefox. Check the release notes, I believe it contains all the latest security fixes in "Firefox 3.6.4".
    Hopefully, they will fix Firefox 3.6 in the next version (e.g. Firefox 3.6.7), until then you should probably use "Firefox 3.5.10".

    That's not very intuitive
    Check your mail server setup (mail>preferences>accounts>) choose your MobileMe account and select Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) dropdown box, select Edit SMTP server list, verify that each instance of the me server has a password, if there are more than one and you only have one account then delete the one without a password.

  • Photoshop Elements 12 no longer see's my scanner.  So I cannot scan my pictures, help.  Windows 8.1 with HP Officejet 6500A Plus printer.  Scanner works with other programs in my PC.  Problem is PS12

    So I cannot scan my pictures, help.  Windows 8.1 with HP Officejet 6500A Plus printer.  Scanner works with other programs in my PC.  Problem is PS12

    I bought the Officejet 6500A Plus about one month and have experienced the very same problem. I tried to remedy this problem following suggestions in a number of different posts (static IP, router, firewalls etc), all to no avail. Last week I called support. The support I received by the tech over several hours and different days for a week was very good. However none of his suggestions corrected the connection issue. After today's recommended fix failed, he advised HP is aware of this issue with the 6500 and other affected printers. He claimed HP was working on a firmware upgrade. He did not know when the update would be provided. The tech also claimed HP acknowledged this problem in a written announcement. He agreed to email the announcement to me. I haven't received it. This has been the only problem I've had with the 6500

  • Itunes crashed, now programs that run on startup crash

    hi,
    I just installed itunes for my new ipod mini, and while going through my library (my music) i received an error message that advised that there may be a problem with my hardware.
    I managed to close itunes, and noticed that there were only 13 songs on my ipod mini, not 800. When I went to download more songs, I recieved the generic "itunes has encountered a problem and needs to close" message.
    I rebooted my computer, and noticed that I got the same message for three other programs that load upon my computer startup. My windows messenger is also no longer working on my computer, but my internet is still ok.
    I have Norton '05 and windows firewall, and have disabled both, to no avail. I have also uninstalled my ipod, and itunes/quicktime and still get the message. booting to last known good configuration doesn't help either.
    This morning, my computer was fine, now everything is crashing upon startup, and I have no more messenger! Can somebody please help me!!!
    w.

    hi b,
    Thanks for the reply. I think I figured out what happened. Somehow, when I installed the itunes/quicktime software or ipod hardware my computer managed to talk itself into thinking that the year was 9999!
    I'm not sure if anybody else has come across this, or what changed the date, but my itunes seems to work now, as well as my MSN Messenger. I'm using the computer right now, and can't reboot, but I'm sure that when I do, it will be fine again.
    I guess I have to laugh, after spending all night searching the registry and disabling software/hardware to test for conflicts that it was the date on my computer!
    Thanks for the input, and your time b. noir!

  • What is the best way to properly activate the Lightroom Student Edition? Is the Student Edition a permanent program or does it deactivate after 2-4 years like some other programs that are student versions?

    I just purchased the student edition of Lightroom! I am very excited to use it and start creating beautifully edited photos but I'm a little unsure about a few things. It says I have to prove my eligibility to use the student edition which won't be an issue but what is the quickest and easiest way to submit this proof? Also I am concerned that the student edition will be temporary and I will have bought this program only to have it expire at the end of 4 years like some other programs that are student versions. Is the student edition of Lightroom a permanent program that I will have for life or will it deactivate after I graduate?

    When I purchased my academic version of Lightroom, it was a package set. Inside was a yellow card with the instructions on how to verify that I qualified for the academic discount. I submitted my academic e-mail address and other info as requested on that yellow card. Within 5 min. I received my serial number. Very straightforward. I had no problems whatsoever.
    There is only one version of the Lightroom program itself. The only difference is in the licensing and pricing. If you qualify for the academic discount, by all means use it. You are purchasing the same Lightroom program that anyone else does. It doesn't expire, there are no missing features, and it can be upgraded when new major versions are released. Those upgrades will cost the same as they cost for any other person, regardless of how they purchased Lightroom.
    You can confidently move ahead with obtaining your serial number. The only thing you are doing differently is paying a lower initial purchase price because of your academic status.

  • Can't start video, try closing other programs that might be using your webcam

    I am using skype on win8. It was perfectly fine until last week. This message "can't start video, try closing other programs that might be using your webcam" is always there. I investigated this problem in the forum.  I did this but it did not help at all. I checked nothing was using webcam! Try to reset skype settings Exit Skype : From the system tray >> right click on the skype icon and click "Quit Skype" Click Start >> Run Type: %appdata% Rename folder "Skype" to "Old_Skype" Re-run Skype 
    I tried some other chatting software and it gives me the same problem. However, the metro app camara is working perfectly fine. I have the latest driver and I also tried another webcam from logitech and it gives the same problem!!!! 

    Most likely this is one of the registry keys that need to be modified. However, be very careful when you make any changes to your Registry Database. Make always a copy of this data base before making any changes, so you can always revert to the original settings if something will go wrong. The relevant keys are these that refer to Imaging devices. On my system I have 3 such devices: Logitech c920 webcam, LifeCam VX-5000 webcam and CanoScan LiDE 25 Scanner. The last is installed but not currently connected to the computer. You can make a search in your registry database using this item: imaging devices. For all the items I could find on my system, the main key of the type, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet00X\Control\Class\{6BDD1FC6-810F-11D0-BEC7-08002BE2092F} was looking like this:   There is neither LowerFilters nor UpperFilters value defined. You can open the subkeys of the type 0000, 0001, 0002, etc. and see what device they are referring to.

  • Problem with various programs freezing/not working

    I'm not sure if it's a problem with the computer itself or with the software, but perhaps someone on here can help me.
    For about a week now I've been having problems with various programs on my iMac. These programs include iTunes, Force Quit, Shut Down, Safari, Finder, and certain functions on the keyboard.
    The problems I've been having revolve around the programs freezing up when you either first try to operate them or after opening the programs and trying to click on things within the program itself.
    A good example: I haven't been able to use iTunes past the point of opening it up. Once I try to play a song, it freezes up and the rainbow wheel comes up and just keeps on spinning for eternity, or until I manually reboot the computer via the power button.
    The volume controls on the keyboard don't work at all. When I first boot up the computer, I can press a volume button and the symbol will appear on the screen, but the level won't move up or down and if you press it again after that disappears then it doesn't reappear.
    Force Quit and other applications tend to stay on the screen after you click the quit button or other end/cancel button and won't go away until iMac is rebooted manually by button on back.
    Safari gets stuck on occasion depending on which site I go to. It happened once when I went to MySpace.com, but only cos of one of the flash sites they were advertising. I went to the same site an hour later and it was fine since it was advertising something else. I have a job site I can't access because when I click on the 'jobs' link to look for a job, it gets 3/4 of the way through the upload and freezes.
    And right now I can't tell you which model I have since I can't access the 'About This Mac' info, other than to tell you it's the 20" with 320 GB with Leopard software, Mac OS X v10.5. It gets regular updates.
    So... if there's anyone who could help me, I would greatly appreciate it.
    Please note, I don't have Apple Care since I can't afford it yet, and I just bought my computer in October 2007. Thanks!

  • Help regarding with a program that calculates change for a cashier.

    I am seeking help for a java script or program that can answer my problem:
    Write a program that calculates change for a cashier. The program requests the cost of the item. The user then types in the cost. The program then outputs the cost of the item including the sales tax (use 6% as the sales tax value). The program next request and recieves the amount tendered by the customer. Finally, the program outputs a summary of all figures, including the amount of change due to the customer. (change . java)
    change . java has the following attributes and methods:
    double costs; doublegetCosts ( ) void setCost (double x)
    double tax; doublegetTax ( ) void setTax (double x)
    double payment; doublegetPayment ( ) void setpayment (double x)
    *rite another program that will have an instance of change . java. Call the file as cashier.java
    *Public Cashier {
    public void static main (string27argc
    change x ;
    x = new change ( ) ;
    * cashier . java will use the attributes and methods stated on change java via the instance of change inside cashier.
    Please I have no idea for java, I am student who really needs help on this. If anyone knows how to do this please reply to this topic!
    Thank you

    the correct way to get help in forums like this is to post
    the specific problem you have, along with what you have tried
    and details of the output you expect Vs the output you get.
    simply posting the assignment makes it look like just another
    "do my homework for me" plea - even though it may not be.

  • Issues with a program,that exetutes SEM BPS sequence, into a Process Chain

    We have a process chain with a step which launches a program. That program executes a SEM BPS sequence. To set that request into green we have a step with other program which changes the planning cube to batch.
    Our two problems are:
    1) We cannot check in the process chain monitor if sequence finished all right because the step always finishes ok even if the sequence falls.
    2) Our SEM BPS sequence takes a long time and the process chain continues its execution without SEM BPS sequence is ended.
    Thanks a lot!
    Mario

    I am not sure if there is a solution to this in BW 3.x or SEM BPS. But if you can model the same planning sequence in BI-IP, then you can excute it in a process chain using a process chain variant.
