Reader X opens Docs very slowly, need help

Just upgraded to X, prior versions opened files immediately, this version takes 10-15 seconds to open, frustratingly slow.  Any recommendations to speed it back up? 
Noticed a discussion that mentioned this version accesses internet with every file opened.  How much data is exchanged and can this be turned off?  Part of speed problem?  In rural area, I have limited data usage on wireless card.

I have this problem too and I have since long suspected the sandbox to be the culprit. It wasn't until today that I started Googling it though. I first found this forum and now I think I have found the solution here:
http://www.sevenforums.com/software/131325-adobe-reader-x-very-slow-open-some-pdf-under-wi ndows-7-64-bit.html
"Go to Edit / preferences / general  - then uncheck box 'Enable protected mode at startup'   This got rid of the lag in opening adobe docs."
I'm trying this out now! Even though it will kill what little security Adobe has created I cannot stand the lag anymore.

    After reinstalling Yosemite 10.10.2 Bridge opens folders very slowly.

    Thanks Ian! I see the other topics now, and I did the deauthorize thing, although it said this computer was not authorized (I know it was because I just bought songs on it.) So I authorized it again and now it works fine! Except now it says there are 3 computers authorized, I only have 2. I guess it thinks this computer is authorized twice now somehow? I hope this bug gets fixed.

  • Pages won't open doc, says I need update

    I just installed the latest update to pages. Now it won't open a doc saying, "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document." I just checked and I don't need any updates!

    You are alternating between the two versions of Pages:
    Pages 5 and Pages '09.
    Pages '09 can not open Pages 5, and Pages 5 alters/damages Pages '09 files.
    Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09 is in your Applications/iWork folder.

  • Files opening in unreadable code need help urgently please

    When I was given my new Toshiba laptop as a gift in 2007 Microsoft Office with Word and Excel etc were already set up so I do not have any discs or keycodes. .Being a senior person, it is also possible that my son who gifted it to me may have installed the above mentioned discs to help set me up, but he does not have any recollection of this, except that he gave me the Toshiba Recovery Disc which I do have.
    My laptop had to go back to Toshiba some time ago for a Manufacture- related issue. They also informed me that some of my files were corrupted. All features remained on my computer as prior to repair, so nothing was lost or had to be re-loaded.
    I have found that since then all my docs are opening in code form and are unreadable. Microsoft Word seems to have disappeared and I have had to install an old Microsoft Works 2001 disc in order to be able to work on new documents. Microsoft Onenote was on the disc but not Word, so the docs will not open with Onenote, so I am stuck.
    Is it possible for me to find out if Toshiba holds the keycode to my original Microsoft Office and would I be able to download it again.? I cannot afford to buy a full new Office system and I have no way of knowing which Microsoft Office ( 2007? )created the documents. I have to know if there is any way I can read these documents and also to establish which of them may be corrupted so that I can delete them. Would a system restore make the documents readable? I am very untechnical minded with regard to computers as you can observe from my wording and would really appreciate any help you can give as I cannot afford to pay someone who keeps my computer for a day or more and then charges me an extortionate amount.
    Thank you so much in advance if you can help me in any way with easy to follow instructions/advice.

    What is the model number of your laptop?
    A Trial version of MS Office may have been pre-installed. If you activated Office (Purchased a license), then you could try calling Microsoft to re-activate it.
    If you reinstall Windows using your Toshiba Recovery Disc, the Office installation should be installed. (Note that the Recovery Disc will delete your data, so back up your files first).
    Alternatively, you could use OpenOffice to read your documents. OpenOffice (free) works with Microsoft Office files.

  • FCT Getting Very "Sticky" Need Help Troubleshooting!

    Hello,
    Here's the problem, the best I can explain it:
    In every editing session - after a hundred or so moves (edits, plays, anything) - the Final Cut program gets very "sticky." Every command has a delay, and the longer I'm at it, the longer the delay becomes. Quitting the application and restarting it seems to be the only way to get the program up to speed, but the problem is consistent, and every day of editing requires about 20 or so quits and restarts. There's no serious problem that gets in the way of getting the job done, but it's become an annoying impediment to productivity.
    My guess is that it's memory related, but I have not found anything to pinpoint what exactly. I've looked into Activity Monitor and even gone so far as to quit background and unused operations, but that doesn't seem to do anything either.
    Please let me know if you need me to explain further. Anything you can offer would be of great help.
    Thanks in advance!!!!!
    Specs:
    Final Cut Pro 4.5
    Dual 1.8 GHz
    2 GB Ram
    Media on external Firewire drive

    99 undo steps is max, as you may know. That would maybe explain why you experienced FCP getting more sticky for every thing you did. Every sequence you have open, eats ram. Try having only the sequences you are working with open.
    Does it help, lowering the undo steps and the amount of open sequences? You might want to get some more ram.

  • I AM READING BUT NOT COMPREHENDING VERY WELL. HELP!!

    Hello everyone!
    I am so frustrated! The only way I could get input and output was by using a file from the wonderful book on Logic Pro 7 and Logic Express 7. I have NEVER been able to set up my own input-output setup in LE 7 and the same is true with LE 8. This is such an essential thing that one should know how to do; it is so basic! Yet, I am unable to do this a all. Not with the screen keyboard, my microphone, or my guitar with a nice pickyp system that I know works well because I could record with it in GarageBand (albeit with a very low volume). So, I have also tried using the "template" for the "Songwriter" that is available upon opening LE 8 and I STILL cannot get any input or output from that either.
    I am lost, frustrated and embarrassed. I can read, but the manuals are over 1000 pages alone! I wish that they had a beginning tutorial that would guide us through this initial hurdle.
    Anyse

    Hi,
    ehhh.... what exactly do you mean by input and output??? Do you mean audio or midi or both??
    Just a couple of hints:
    go to Applications > Utilities, and start Audio/Midi Configuration. In this program you can find volume controls for all audio devices, like the built-in mic, and the external mic input and speaker output. If you record something in Logic you should see the VU-meter of the record-enabled audio channel go up and down. By the way, you should select an input source by click-holding the button beneath the label "I/O" in the channel strip of that channel. Otherwise, Logic doesn't know in what connector you put your guitar cable....
    Also, you have to arm the track by clicking the "R" button in your track, so that it becomes red.
    See page 367 / 368 of the manual (Help > Logic Express 8 User Manual).
    Hope this helps!
    Kind regards,
    Jaap

  • FCP 7 won't open or re-install, need help!

    I have the latest version of FCPX installed as well as FCP7 on my system and I need to open FCP7 so that I can export an XML file in order to utilize 7 to X.  The trouble is that when I attempt to open 7 it crashes and when I attempt to re-install 7 from the Final Cut Studio disc the Final Cut Pro line says "skip" and I am unable to check the box to get it to install!
    Anyone have any suggestions?

  • Enter key disabled when Photoshop CS5 extended open on pc. Need help.

    Photoshop CS5 64 bit is disabling the enter on my keyboard and it affects every app, not just PS. For instance I can't write an email while PS is open because I can't use returns. I can't use the crop tool in PS because hitting enter does nothing.  I don't know if any other keys are being disabled by PS. Closing PS always fixes the problem.  PS 64 bit is installed on my new pc. My old one (now broken) used the 32 bit version and was fine.  Can anyone help?

    I recall hearing about a problem like that with an older third party plugin.
    But Photoshop itself couldn't cause that.
    Have you tried disabling your third party plugins in Photoshop?

  • Read textfile in JSP (Very urgent� Pls Help)

    Hi to all,
    I have a very urgent problem. I need a JSP to read a textfile (c:\abc.txt).and display in it to a space <in a body tag> in a HTML page. Does anyone have any idea? Thanks in advance.
    This is my HTML page.

  • All applications are opening/quitting very slowly or not at all.

    Hi, I have a question about my MacBook Pro. Lately, when I've been opening or quitting different applications, they take several seconds to open, and they often say "Application not responding", and I have to force quit. I'm not sure what to do. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

    A few tips you can try:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=DiskUtility/10.5/en/duh17.html
    You can also boot from an installer disk, and run diskutility to repair the HD.
    This article refers to starup troubles, but can also be used for other issues as well

  • Illustrator CS6 Freezing when opening existing files. Need Help ASAP.

    Hello There,
    I have the most current version on Illustrator CS6. When opening files, any file, it freezing and I have to force quit the application. I have deleted the pref file with some luck, it will only work for a short time. I have held shift+cmd+opt and this too will work 1 in 10 time. I've uninstalled illustrator multiple times. no progress.  I need a fix not a band-aid. I am on a mac running OS X 10.8.3. Is this a known issue? I have a co-working having the same issues.
    Any suggestions??

  • Adobe Reader 8 open pdf very slow and used lots of memory

    I use the Adobe Reader 8 to open a pdf(the pdf size not bigger than 100k)
    but when i open it, it take long time to load it and use so many memory,
    also, i do not have this problem on using adobe reader 7, would any one know the reason?
    Thx for everyone.

    Alright, i know, you can't bare to part with it, you need it, etc.etc...
    try here, its an adobe reader speed up program
    http://software.bootblock.co.uk/?id=adobereaderspeedup
    It's a bit old though.
    Also, do you have the stupid adobe startup program for reader running? This speeds up the loading of adobe reader while simultaneously slowing down your whole system. Great tradeoff.
    Get foxit!
    Adobe sucks!
