PS CS5 incredibly slow

I'm running CS5 on an iMac 27" (Intel Core i5 2.66 GHz, 8GB RAM, 7200RPM drive) and it is incredibly slow, especially when bringing in objects from Illustrator (smart objects) and resizing them.  I'm working on a docuement that is only 50MB in size and it's crawling.  I end up having to rasterize the object just so I can scale it which kind of defeats the purpose.
One thing I noticed is that PS isn't utilizing all the cores.  For that matter, neither is Illustrator.  I don't have any issues with CS4 so I'm wondering what's up with CS5 or if it's some kind of compatibility thing with 10.6.4 and CS5.  Whatever it is, it's annoying.

Ok, then the remaining problems we know about are related to OS bugs with fonts.
The OS can sometimes corrupt it's font cache, and give bad info for fonts, which causes a number of slowdown issues (and crashes).
Validating fonts in FontBook is the first step.
Then flushing the OS font cache (see http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/843/cpsid_84363.html ).

  • CS5 incredibly slow to open/save files

    I've been using CS5 for a while now, but only recently has it started showing this issue.
    Basically, Photoshop is taking about five seconds only to show the save/open file dialogs, no matter what resolution/kind of file/etc.
    This is critical to me, since I use the save dialog so frequently this basically slows my productivity by 50%.
    I've allowed Photoshop to take up to 1GB ram, but I don't think that's the problem, since I've ran it with the Task Manager open and it's not showing considerable RAM/CPU uses when I ask PS to open/save.
    I believe this might be related to recent patches on the software, I'm thinking of reinstalling it on a previous version.

    Likewise a network share that's not currently online (e.g., a mapped drive or a desktop shortcut pointing to a server not presently there) can cause major Windows stalls.

  • Media Encoder CS5 Incredibly Slow

    I cannot believe how long it is taking to encode a 3 minute video using the media encoder in CS5.  I am running a Pentium Dual Core processor with 8mb of RAM and it is taking close to an HOUR to encode this 3 minute vid to a F4V 1920 x 1080
    I've shut down as many processes as I can - but this is ridiculous.
    Am I missing something that can help speed up this process so that my news conference interviews get posted the same day that they take place????

    Hope you are not planning on using a 1920x1080 video on the Internet...
    What is the encoding video bitrate? If you don't know or can't answer that, then you sure as heck should not be encoding a 1920x1080 video.
    What is the original file format and video dimensions?
    And you do realize that many, if not most viewers will not have updated their Flash Web browser pluggin so they can actually view the .f4v video... right??
    For review:
    Video bit rate
    One of the principle of goal setting is to "Begin with the end in mind". In this case it'll be very hard to give good recommendations because the end is not defined. So I'll just make a few assumptions and you can correct me as needed.
    First, I'll assume that since you are converting to Flash, you want to deliver this video over the Internet. If that's true, then we'll have to make some assumptions on the Internet connection download speeds of your potential viewers. Let's just say that most have at least a 1.5Mb connection or faster.
    OK, that would mean that a video bitrate of half that should usually provide a video download that is not interupped by buffering (most of the time anyway). So assuming a video bitrate of 750kbps, what would the optimum display dimensions be?
    Before we decide, here's a little info about bitrate. For highest quality playback, the video bitrate is tied directly to the display dimensions. That is, the larger the display, the more incoming data is required to properly display the video. Think of bitrate in terms of a can of paint. If you have 1 quart of paint, you might be able to do a very nice job on a 32 X 24 foot area. But if you try to stretch that same amount of paint out over a 64 X 48 foot area, the coverage will not be nearly as good and you get poor results.
    In the same way, a video displayed at 640 X 480 pixels will require 4 times the bitrate as a video displayed at 320 X 240 pixels to produce the same quality. So for example a video with a bitrate of 100kbps, displayed at 160 X 120 will produce the same quality results as a video with a bitrate of 1600kbps if displayed at 640 X 480.
    So to boil it all down, video bitrates of 750kbps, even up to 1000kbps can usually get delivered of the Internet on most high speed connections. Higher bit rates may work for really fast connections but will cause problems for viewers with slower connections. Video display size has a direct bearing on the final quality. In the 750 to 1000kbps range, display size should be kept around 450 or 500 width max (and whatever height the aspect ratio calls for). Yes it can be displayed larger, but the quality will suffer.
    Sound like your audio settings are fine, especially for Internet delivery.
    As for framerate, maintain the original raw video framerate for best results. So if the video was shot at 24fps, leave it.
    As for video converters, do you have the Flash 8 Video Converter? It works just fine for video to be delivered over the Internet. Remember, you are taking a Cadillac version of video (h.264 HD) and stuffing it into a Chevy body to get it to work over the Internet.
    Best wishes,

  • CS5 incredibly slow; Noise Ninja unrecognized by program

    Cannot get CS5 to recognize NoiseNinja.  Snow Leopard 10.6.3.  Latest everything.  Reparied permissions, reinstalled Photoshop, reinstalled NoiseNinja, nada.
    It's also taking CS5 up to 3 minutes to open and close tiff files around 500 MB in size.  Something is rotten, I can't figure it out, and HELP!  PLEASE!

    Adobe- do you keep a list of CS5 compatible filters?
    found this:
    This may help Mac users.
    Noise Ninja is compatible with Photoshop CS5.
    On Windows computers, the Noise Ninja plug-in is compatible with 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Photoshop, including CS5.
    However, on Mac computers, the plug-in currently works only with 32-bit versions of Photoshop. We are working hard on a 64-bit Mac solution, but we haven't set a release date yet. We hope to make more information available soon.
    To use Noise Ninja in CS5 on the Mac, you should select to run CS5 in 32 bit mode. To do this, bring up Finder and choose "More info..." on Adobe Photoshop CS5.app. Then check the "Open in 32 Bit Mode" option. Then all of your 32 bit plug-ins will work with it.
    Kind regards,

  • Early 2011 MacBook Pro incredibly slow after installing Mavericks

    I'm really hoping someone can help me out. As per the subject line, I installed Mavericks on day one (and learned my lesson!).
    Since installing Mavericks my MacBook Pro runs incredibly slow. If I open the Mail App and Safari - it almost grinds to a halt. I have the "Memory Clean" App which I now have to run constantly (it appears to help a little) and I try to only launch one app at a time where possible, but it's not really pratical.
    As an aside, my MacBook ran really well with Mountain Lion, so there's little doubt to my mind that Mavericks is the culprit.
    I'd be eternally grateful for any help & advice :-)
    I spotted other people advise running EtreCheck, here are my results:

    CleanMyMac is probably your problem.
    CleanMyMac is crapware.
    Crapware is anything that purports to "optimize",  "clean", "accelerate", "monitor", or "protect" your Mac. These apps are unnecessary, poorly written, overpriced (if they were free, they'd still be overpriced), and harmful. The people who sell this stuff know this, but they keep selling it because people keep buying it. They can damage your OS and be difficult to uninstall.
    I would try to uninstall it, but if that fails, you may have to erase your HD and do a clean install.

  • My 8620 HP Officejet Pro 8620 e-All-in-One Printer IS INCREDIBLY SLOW TO PRINT - TRIED EVERYTHING

    I have an 8620 HP Officejet Pro 8620 e-All-in-One Printer It is connected via wireless set-up, with excellent signal strength. It is incredibly slow to print anything, especially PDF files that have graphics in them. I have the latest software installed, latest firmware updates. I have even uninstalled and re-installed, the issue is still there. This is an incredibly crap product, so I'd like to get this issue solved ASAP. Thanks,Brian

    For example: printing http://www.nytimes.com/images/2015/07/04/nytfrontpage/scan.pdf Quickly goes 7.03mb/of 7.03mb... then just swirls the "printing" status on the printer's LCD screen, and takes 5 minutes to print...

  • Incredibly slow MacBook, Internal Hard Drive issues...

    Good morning everybody! I'm apologize if this post is extremely wordy...
    I am extremely baffled by a particular issue with a MacBook 2.0GHz C2D which belongs to a friend of mine. The warranty is expired.
    _Brief history:_
    Several months ago, this MacBook could not find a bootable volume. The drive would not mount when booting from an external FireWire hard drive. It would not mount when the MacBook was put in Target Disk Mode and connected to another Mac. When booting from an external USB hard drive or with my MacBook Pro connected to the MacBook via Target Disk Mode, the MacBook booted up quickly. I came to the conclusion that the internal hard drive must have failed and needed to be replaced. Ultimately, the data was not recoverable from this drive.
    I then proceeded to swap out the defective Apple OEM Seagate hard drive with a known working Apple OEM Fujitsu hard drive. When booting from the Leopard Install DVD, the MacBook would boot incredibly slow, but would finally reach the Installer Language screen. When proceeding to install Leopard, the drive would take a very long time to have data written to it, and ultimately the install failed. I removed the new hard drive from the MacBook and placed it in an external USB enclosure, attached it to the MacBook and booted from the Leopard Install DVD. Leopard would install successfully. I removed the hard drive from the enclosure and reinstalled it the MacBook. When booting from the freshly installed OS, the MacBook would take a very long time to boot. The MacBook is extremely slow!!!
    I checked the Activity Monitor to ensure CPU & System Memory Usage was not going crazy. All Processes where normal with adequate CPU & Memory headroom.
    I took the MacBook apart thinking that the SATA Controller Cable might be loose. No, it was firmly in place. I reassembled the MacBook and booted it up again. Still incredibly slow!
    Finally, after several reboot attempts, the MacBook would book up quickly and operation was perfect. I applied all updates and continued testing the MacBook with great success. Gave my friend his MacBook back and he was grateful.
    _Now for the kicker..._
    My friend brought me his MacBook a week ago complaining that the MacBook was operating extremely slow (much like when I was initially testing it before). I verified the MacBook was slow when I tried using it. I tried several reboots and then it would get stuck on the gray Apple with spinning gear.
    I tried booting into Single User Mode, but it gets stuck on "Waiting for root device"
    I put the MacBook in Target Disk Mode and connected it to my G5 2.0GHz Dual Core. The hard drive would mount quickly on the G5 and I used Disk Utility to create a Restore Image. The disk operation would perform normally and the image would be created successfully.
    I then partitioned the MacBook's hard drive when connected to the G5, ejected and proceeded to attempt OS reinstall. No dice! The hard drive is not even detected by the Disk Utility on the Leopard Install DVD.
    Finally after several reattempts, the hard drive is recognized, but is extremely slow when trying to reinstall...and again, ultimately install fails. Using Disk Utility from Leopard Install DVD, the hard drive fails to unmount when I try formatting.
    I don't have Apple Hardware Test disc for the MacBook or Apple Service Diagnostics disc for this model. Running TechTool Pro shows hardware to be okay, disk controller onboard the Fujitsu drive is okay, but running SMART & Surface Scan takes a long, long time (which I'm certain will ultimately error out). Running Drive Genius takes a long, long time as well.
    Conclusion:
    I think the SATA Controller Cable is defective. I can't think of anything else that would cause disk errors or performance issues like this. Your input is truly appreciated!

    Even though no one responded to my post, I thought I'd share the resolution with the entire Apple community. I hope this information will be helpful to some of you with MacBooks or MacBook Pros that may be running painfully slow or may be exhibiting hard drive issues because your machine won't recognize the boot drive or fails to properly boot on a perfectly healthy S.M.A.R.T. verified hard drive. It just might be the hard drive connector/cable. Here it goes...
    I visited my local Apple Retail Store and asked a "Genius" at the Genius Bar about this issue and told him my thoughts about a possible failed hard drive connector/cable. First, he didn't even know what a hard drive connector was! Then, he arrogantly stated that he never heard of such a thing and that these cables never fail. Finally, he blatantly dispelled this as a possibility.
    On the contrary with my experience, I have had many failed PATA controller cables that required replacement when supporting the desktop PC's at work. I have personally owned and supported many Apple manufactured laptops and desktops and have never encountered this issue on a Mac...until this MacBook!
    So, after looking at the Service Manual for the MacBook, I went over to my local Apple Authorized Service Provider and purchased the Hard Drive Connector Apple Part #922-7579. I replaced the original cable, reassembled and proceeded to boot the MacBook with the Leopard DVD installer. The Fujitsu drive was immediately recognized and was able to be formatted and Leopard installed without incident. The MacBook boots off the internal hard drive as normal again and works nice and fast again.
    Thank you all for your time!

  • I have uninstalled everything on my laptop, removed all my files to my external device and my laptop is still incredibly slow when opening any of the adobe applications, can anyone help please?

    I have downloaded the adobe student suite and whenever I open any of the adobe applications my laptop is incredibly slow, I cannot use any other application at the same time and often have to force quit. I have taken all my files off my laptop and added to my external hardrive. Can anyone help please?

    What about other non-Adobe programs on the machine - do they also run slowly?
    What are your system specifications?  How do they match up to the system requirements for the software?

  • Rendering in Final Cut Pro 10.1.2 is incredibly slow

    I just Upgraded to Final Cut Pro 10.1.2 and rendering has become incredibly slow. I am using OSX 10.9.4 on an IMAC with 32GB of RAM on a 3.4GHz machine. In previous version I had absolutley NO trouble. Since my Libraries were upgraded by this version, I am assuming that it is not possible to Rollback to a previous version - is that correct?

    Depends. If you have system backups that predate the upgrade, you should be able to restore both the application and the libraries.
    What kind of rendering…while working on the timeline or at export?
    See what happens if you create a new library and a new project and event and use the same type of media that you have in your other projects?

  • 17" i7 MacBook Pro incredibly slow

    My i7 macbook Pro has become incredibly slow. Boot time is well over 3 minutes, bringing up a program (such as Microsoft Word or Pages) takes upto 2 additional minutes. When I look at the activity monitor, it does not appear that the machine is CPU bound--- CPU sits there at about 10-20% utilization at the most. I have a 7200 RPM drive, but it almost looks like it takes a long time to load. I have tried many programs: Disk optimization, DIsk Warrior, Clean my Mac, Mac Keeper.... so I have dedragmented my disk, cleaned all the caches, got rid of temp files, and done basically everything I can do.  Does anyone have any ideas as to what could be wrong? I do not have many programs that I run regularly;; Mainly Safair, Chrome, Microsoft Office, iWork, and Mail.   The vintage of the machine is June 2010.   MacKeeper is saying my machine is at optimized. I have also removed virtualy all the programs that I had at startup including Growl, Flip4Mac.  I have also cleaned my desktop.
    Ideas will be appreciated. I am now spending more time on my MacBook Air which is blazingly fast, but I am constrained by the small hard drive and the small screen.
    Thanks,
    Paul

    Says it all right there. Uninstall this P.O.S. software if you can, they don't provide a method neither.
    The Mac based Internet wants to crucify these jerks. It's as bad as MacDefender.
    Download the free Easy Find here, it allows more deeper of a search than Spotlight, even invisible files. Seek and destroy MacKeeper.
    http://www.devon-technologies.com/download/index.html
    When you first boot your machine and you have no programs open, look for a process that consuming a lot of CPU, it's likely your culprit, you can force quit it.
    Look at your System Preferences > Accounts > log-in items for anything your not using and click the "-" to stop it being a log in item.
    OnyX will deep system clean a Mac, do ALL the cleaning and maintenance tasks and reboot, it will do it without installing or running anything afterwards, unlike those other programs.
    http://www.titanium.free.fr/
    What I suspect is your caches are thrown off by the defrag. Do the OnyX and remove MacKeeper, I think you'll be a happy camper after that.
    When you reboot, there should be hardly anything running, your CPU usage should nearly zero.
    If all this fails, your looking at backing up your data. Hold c and booting off the installer disk that comes with your computer and using Disk Utility to Erase, format HFS+ Journaled and reinstalling OS X.  Programs from fresh sources and files from backup.
    Next time Carbon Copy Cloner your boot drive to a external drive, it's hold option bootable and you can recover/repair, run the computer off the clone or reverse clone if need be.

  • Firefox works incredibly slow (as in the window is barely functionable, not anything related to bandwitdh speed) when I'm running certain games on my computer.

    Hello,
    During the past month i have had a strange problem with my Firefox browser in certain situations. The issue is only apparent when running certain 3D games (Most frequently when I run Diablo III). Whenever these games are loaded my Firefox browser will work incredibly slow. This is not an issue of a bandwitdh problem or such, the loading speed is fine, but the actual mouse clicks, bookmark clicks, keyboard inputs etc. take several seconds to register.
    I have tried running Firefox in failsafe-mode which immediately made the problem go away. However, whenever I run it in regular mode the problem will be back even if I disable every single addon and plugin. I have also tried reinstalling both firefox as well as my addons and flash player, the issue stays.
    For what it's worth, any other browser I have installed does not experience the problem at all (despite having the same few addons installed - I only have 3 of them).
    Does anyone have a clue what the issue might be? Does the failsafe-mode inactivate anything besides the addons and plugins listed in the addon-section?
    Thanks in advance

  • My computer is INCREDIBLY slow after Yosemite install

    I recently installed the latest operating system Yosemite for my Apple Mac Pro and ever since it has been installed, my computer has been INCREDIBLY slow!  Everything from starting up to applications opening to the **** internet!  I'm ready to punch my fist into my **** monitor, even though I know it's not my monitor's fault.  lol.  Macworld has published an article (http://www.macworld.com/article/2837811/bugs-and-fixes-solving-a-yosemite-post-i nstall-disaster.html) about this along with the problem they think is causing it but I checked and the file in question doesn't exist on my computer.  I don't want to go through the last step that is mentioned which involves downloading Yosemite onto an external hard drive and then installing from there.  That step would also involve manually searching for files that might be causing the issue.
    So, has anyone else experienced their computers running REAL slow after the update and did you figure out a simple solution?
