Running Adobe Actions is Using 100% of my CPU

Does anyone have a fix for Adobe using 100% of their CPU. Without running Photoshop I run 5-6%. As soon as I open Lightroom, send to Photoshop and run an action my CPU Usage spikes to 100%. What should take 2 minutes max to edit is taking between 5-7 minutes. I'm spending more time waiting for an action to run than I am actually working. I'm running Windows 7 64 bit and Creative Cloud version 1.9.0.465. It's so bad that I have to transfer my images to my laptop (Window's 8) to edit which I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO DO! Here's another complaint: When I'm in Lightroom and right click on an image and choose to edit in Photoshop I don't always get the option to edit original image or edit a copy. Most of the time it goes straight to CS6. When I save the edit the saved edited image does not go back to it's original catalog, rather it goes to the main catalog without keywords and I have to go on a treasure hunt to find it and mark it with keywords. I hoped purchasing the subscription would eliminate bugs to the program but it doesn't. I have more bugs with the subscription than I ever had with the purchased programs. It's also important to note that I have not changed any of the preferences. Thanks for any help y'all can provide.

Hi,
The size of the image is 1000*600.
I use the default radius of the filter. I don't know the value.
I run the swf on a Intel core2duo 2.2Ghz.
I use the filter array to apply the filter.
To illustrate my problem, you can download a very simple sample of my project here. It's a grid where i draw a collection of items in a bitmap.
If i apply the filter in the constructor of the grid in Index.as by passing true in the first parameter, my CPU usage is at 20 to 30%. If I don't apply the filter, the CPU usage is at 2 to 3%.
What is the problem?
Thanks for your help.

How can I get ITunes to stop using 100% of my CPU system resources

When ITunes is up, it uses 100% of my CPU resources, making everything else operate at a snail's pace. I'm not even doing anything with ITunes, but it still seems to hog my machine, a desktop computer running WIndows XP. (When Itunes is closed CPU usage goes down to 4%-25% or thereabouts on average.)
What can I do to stop this? It is very frustrating that Apple would make a program that does this without reason.
David

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if CPU issue is resolved..
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

Why is the latest version of Firefox 33.0.2 using 100% of my CPU?

Just like the last update to Thunderbird, with no changes on my system, the latest version of Firefox uses 100% of my CPU where it didn't before. I've run every test, disabled my anti-virus, run in safe mode and it makes no difference.
Since there was no useful answers when I posted about the TB problem, I doubt there will be any here.
Sorry Mozilla, but you're about to lose my support. I already moved away from Thunderbird. Now that FF has the same problem, I'm about to switch my browser to Chrome, even though it is not as good.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.

Firefox use 100% of one CPU (Mac)

I use last firefox (32) on MacOS X 10.6.8.
Sometime firefox start using 100% a one CPU, from that time the only way to stop it was to quit (it take severals seconds, sometime it hang). When it start i can close all windows, firefox continue using 100% CPU.
I follow standard instructions (update to lastest, disable plugins and extensions...) it do not work.
I not a configuration to reproduce the problem : keep iCloud mail open in one tab is the way to reproduce the problem sometime after a few minutes, sometime after some hours : but it also happend sometime with no iCloud open...

Speakers use 100% of one CPU - Pavilion dv7

HP Pavilion dv7-4153cl
I have had two warnings about something using 100% of one CPU. The first one while using Dragon NS. The second was loading a program.
When I clicked the warning, a box came up listing the speakers but nothing seemed to be a problem.
Should I be concerned about these pop-ups?
Why does it warn me?
Does it slow down the computer?

Adobe flash player uses 250% of my cpu playing videos...how is that possible?

Adobe flash player uses 250% of my cpu playing videos...how is that possible?

That is totally possible if you do not have Flash set to
enable hardware accelerations. Right click on a playing
Flash video and select settings from the pop up.
Click the little monitor icon at the bottom left corner.
Check the check box "Enable hardware acceleration."
With out this set, the CPU does all the work of decoding the
video instead of the video card.
update:
As a quick check, went to Hulu and started an episode of
Warehouse 13. With hardware acceleration enabled, CPU
was at 37% for Flash. With hardware acceleration disabled,
this jumped up to 138%.
The test was done on a 2011 Mac Mini Server 2.0 GHz, quad core i7.

Adobe Reader XI use 100 % of the processor in Internet Explorer

We have sequenced Adobe Reader XI with App-V 5.0 SP2 hotfix 5. This package is deployed in our Windows 2008 R2 Citrix XenApp 7.6 server. When we open a PDF document in Internet Explorer, after about 10 seconds IE freeze and this process use 100% of one processor.
The first 10 seconds, we can do watever we want with the PDF file.
We are searching a fix for this problem for many weaks, with no success. We have virtualized Adobe Reader X and we have no problem with PDF in Internet Explorer.
I know that installing Reader localy will solve the problem, but we want to virtualised the maximum of application without installing it natively.
Thanks for your help!

I have run a procmon and i have discover that when the processor is 100%, the Internet Explorer process query the registry with those key to the infinite :

Should Kernel_Task be constantly using 100% of my CPU?

Kernel_task is consistently running ~95-100% of my CPU. I'm using a 2013 MBA with Mavericks. Any thoughts about why this may be happening? I've seen on other forums that this may be related to 3rd party audio apps or something, but I don't have any 3rd party audio apps installed. Any other ideas?
Thanks.

In brief: resetting the SMC solved the problem in my case.
My Mac Book Retina started an erratic wake-up behaviour (often hangig up after wake) about three weeks ago (somehow coinciding with upgrade to Mavericks). Last night out of the blue the kernel-task reading went up to several hundred percent, CPU usage by system up to 75-85%, making the machine terribly slow.
In another post, Linc Davis suggested a line of steps inlcuding checking the configuration of the mac. (I will post my results from EtreCheck below).
I unsucessfully tried: reinstalling OSX from apples webite, removing some of the non-needed third party extensions with no effect.
Finally I tried resetting the SMC: Problem stopped, everything back to a smooth and fast running machine.
(System Use about 3-7%, of this kernel_task around 5%)
Thanks to Linc Davis for suggesting this step.

Apimac Timer uses 100% of my CPU

One of my previously favorite apps (Appimac Timer) refuses to open. My activity monitor says that it is using 99 to 100.5 percent of my CPU. I have deleted and reinstalled numerous times. I'm running 8 Gigabytes of RAM if that means anything. Thanks.

Yes. I installed Mountain Lion. Since then, the situation has been gradually getting worse. The interesting thing is that once I can get Apimac Timer opened, it works fine. Consequently, I keep it open as often as possible. When I restart my computer, I have Apimac set to open automatically and it usually does. Lately, however, it has been hanging if I try to open it. Yesterday, I closed it accidentally and when I tried to open it again, it hangs, using over 100% of my CPU. I thought maybe it was a memory issue, since I only had two gig of memory. But also yesterday I installed 2 new 4 gig DIMM. Prior to that, I had started to have to close programs in order to not have some of them freeze. Once I realized that I needed more memory and installed it, everything is coming up roses. Except the Apimac Timer, which is now totally un-openable. Any ideas?
Thanks.

Plugin-container.exe takes over and uses 100% of my CPU locking me out and leaving my PC non-functioning. Is this a bug, or a memory leak, in the Firefox software? Can anything be done to fix this problem?

In looking at Windows Task Manager I found that plugin-container.exe was taking over 100% of my CPU and my system was frozen. Is this a memory leak or other bug?

Thank you! I have been having problems with Adobe Flash since downloading the new 11.1 version. I will download it again and reinstall it, hopefully that will correct the problem.

The plug in container for Adobe Flash eats up 100% of my CPU on a regular basis and I have to go in to task manager and kill the process.

Screen updates become very slow and intermittent. I then start task manager to see what is using either ram or cpu, and invariably it is Plug-in container for Firefox using most of the cpu resources. When I kill the process, I get the message at the top of the browser that Adobe Flash plug-in has crashed.
I understand that Flash is useful/necessary for many applications, but is there a way to limit the resources it uses?

Do you have Logitech gaming software installed on the PC? If so, perhaps try the suggestion from the following post:

Systemd-journal process using 100% of one cpu core after reboot

journalctl -b showed
"Process 2016 (virtuoso-t) dumped core."
more than a few times and virtuoso-t would was using more cpu than it does most of the time.
at 14 minutes of uptime systemd-journal stopped using 100% and went back to normal. Anyone know a way to figure out what happened here?

it happened again here is what the journal was saying while it was happening (i removed lots of (virtuoso-t) dumped core that happened ... 10 or more times)
Thanks in advance,

In the Newbie Corner of the forums, there are a few stickied threads that are recommended reads. One of which is this one.
If the logs are not too too much, then it can be posted here with code tags. If it is crazy big, pastebin it and then post the link.
If this is really all the information it gives about the journal being nuts, then you might want to enable debug levels of logging for the journal and then see if you can gather more information that way. This can either by done by using a drop-in snippet to the unit file, or by turning on debug levels for the entire system from the kernel command line.
The journal is not designed in such a way that it can be continously written to. There are safeguards in place to ensure that masively spamming services are cut off after a certain number of log messages in a given timeframe. Additionally, even the flush from the journal in RAM to the disk is only done periodically.

Access Connections on Win7 64-bit uses 100% of the CPU

I have been experiencing a problem with Access Connections 5.03 on a T61P where the process utilizes 100% of the CPU and does not get past the initial product title screen. Attaching a debugger to the process yields a stack trace for the spinning thread of:

Firefox 3.6.10 doesn't shut down. Keeps running using 100% of my CPU so I can't play a game. etc., unless I use TUT to find it and shut it down.

After I shut Firefox down, when I try to re-open it (in the same session) I get message "Firefox is already running but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process or restart the system." So I would restart the computer, and it was ok until I shut down again. Finally I used TUT to see what was running in my programs and found that Firefox WAS still running, even though no obvious pages were open on toolbar, etc. Now I use TUT to shut it down instead of restarting, but it's still a nuisance. Should I reinstall Firefox?
