Saving takes forever

Guys,
saving files in Soundtrack takes forever. any idea why? sometimes it even seems unresponsive and crashes. help is much appreciated

If you are running Tiger 10.4.8 then that's the problem, you need to update your OS to 10.4.10 at least. 10.4.9 has a Pro app update and that will improve your save time.

Regarding printing PDF documents...It depends on the PDF document that you are trying to print. In general, it will take longer to print more complex and larger PDF documents.
If you are willing to share your PDF document (that takes forever to print) with us at [email protected], we can test it with the same version (11.6.3) of Adobe Reader on different iOS versions (iOS 7.x vs. iOS 8.x).

Saving edited photo takes forever

I updated to iPhoto 11 and it became very slow. I ned time to open program and saving edited picture take forever if application not quit... My Mac is bit older and has 1GB Ram and my library is about 50GB. Is it any sense to get rid of some picture to make iPhoto working faster?

That I was thinking about. Hard disk on this Mac is 320 Gigs and about 170 is free space. I can add up to 4 Gig of Ram. I didn't think about this before because I already runing two more Macs with Quad procesors. My old mashine is my first Mac ever (some happy tears in my eyes) and I just wanted make it healty like it was in old golden years. If it needs more Ram... let it be so.
Thanks Terence

Saving Data back to DB Takes Forever

Hi,
I've created a multithreaded application which reads in data from a Database A (on Sybase Server), performs number crunching on the data, and saves the data to Database B (on SQL Server). I'm using JTDS for the sql server and JConnect (Sybase Drivers) for the Sybase server. The problem is it takes forever to save the data. I think it's getting blocked somewhere but can't seem to figure out where. Here's is a stack dump of the thread which is saving the data:

Thanks for the help!

Off hand, I doubt anyone knows a solution to this unique problem, not without actually looking at your code and how your doing threading (but you never know). Why do you need a multithreaded application? Why not one thread, open the first datasource, read in a pile of data into memory (not just one record), close the first datasource , process it, , open the other database and write it out. close that dataSource. Loop until all data is transfered. If all works ok, see if you can change the code to keep both datasources open at the same time before closing them.
I assume your using connection pooling throughout.
Again, off hand, I dont see a multithread application really speeding up the application much, my guess is that the bulk of the waiting is read/writing to the database and not processing. This is just a guess.

Extreamly slow messager app. Takes forever to open and has a huge lag
Any one else have this issue?

The stock message app. To be honest my entire phone seems slow.. and it says there is no updates available.. I've updated all of the apps that have available updates and I've even deleted my saved messages... Just not sure why all of a sudden it is running slow.

Quicktime videos take forever to load on my system

Is it me alone, or does anyone have the same problem? I have a excellent system, and nothing takes forever to load on it, only Quicktime videos. The only reason why I use quicktime on my XP machine is to watch the videos that are downloaded from my Kodak camera memory card since the camera saves its video files as quicktime videos, but it takes forever for the video files to load after I have downloaded them and saved them into a folder on my system. When I want to go back and view the videos, the folder freezes until all the videos, even if it is only one video in the folder loads. Why is that? Other video files load immediatley from avi,wmv,to divx,etc.
Does anybody have a solution?

Numbers and Pages takes forever to save(not responding)

I am having problems with Numbers, it keep presenting the spinning ball of Death to me when saving as does pages. This is also the case for my father..
I am running a Imac with OSX 10.7.2. the Imac is just over a year old, 27in 2.8ghz I5 with 12 gig ram... there should be no reason is take its time saving.. very frustrating..
Any help appreciated

I installed the creative suite about a year ago, and this just started happening last weekend. I didn't think it would be a problem and that it would last for a day since I was working on InDesign all day and Illustrator and it usually goes away after I finish using the programs. But this has been occurring for about a week now and has not gone away. and yes the other programs are running slow. I was trying to resize some images for a client and Photoshop was acting extremely slow when I was trying to resize the image and also place an image into a 8x10 document in Photoshop. I'm not sure how to find my system specifications.
All design programs running extremely slow and takes forever to save and sometimes shuts down randomly?

My printer takes forever to print from photoshop elements 9

my printertakes forever to print from photoshop elements 9 then when it prits the crop is wrong, lots of noise or distortion. It only does this in adobe photoshop elements 9.

Yes it is different from what I see in print preview. I have been saving the file and picking it up in windows to print its so much faster and predictable. It takes forever to print from p-e. I read somewhere the printer needs to be calibrated for color but shouldn't have anything to do with crop or printing speed' Thanks

Frequently crashed, takes forever to load history, bookmarks

When it runs, it runs fine.
However, on start-up its a 50/50 chance that it will work.
It takes forever to open up my bookmarks or history, often it will hang and give me the option to Wait etc.
I've tried reinstalling, running without addons. Disabling all non-essential apps in the background and still I have issues.
This is via WiFi and Data, I have tested another browser to see if there was a connection issue but it is fine.

Problems with bookmarks and history not working properly can be caused by a corrupted places.sqlite database file.

Closing document takes forever

When I close a document within Captivate (instead of exiting
the program) it takes forever--maybe two or three minutes. Has
anyone else ever experienced long delays when closing a document?
Is it my computer? Just bought another gig of RAM, but didn't seem
to help.
I've been a Mac guy since '84 and bought this PC just to use
this program (that's how much I love it!). Here are the details of
my computer:
Compaq
Windows Vista Home Basic
Intel Pentium 4 CPU 3.00 GHz
1.75 GB RAM
ATI RADEON XPRESS 1100 Series
Any advice would greatly be appreciated!
Thanks,
Bob

Thanks guys (and girls!) for the responses. I checked and
none of my files are on a network drive.
It really seems like the issue is limited to closing a
document that I've made changes to, even when I've saved the
changes before attempting to close it. However, exiting Captivate
after making changes is instantaneous, so I think I'll just have to
use that as a workaround and exit the program each time I need to
close a file, since it seems launing the application is as fast as
launcing a file within Captivate (both under 30 seconds).
After testing with a new file, I'm guessing it's the files
itself that are slowing closing down. These files were created by
breaking up a 140-slide document with high-quality sound into four
smaller pieces, so Captivate must have a lot of baggage to deal
with when it closes (though I don't understand why they close so
fast when I exit the program). I read elsewhere in this forum that
Captivate 2 hangs on to a lot of garbage even when you delete
things and I'm wondering if it does the same thing with Captivate
3.
By the way, geekygirl, the link you gave me to Adobe's tech
doc said in Vista to recreate the preferences file found here:
For Windows Vista: C:\Users\[USER
ACCOUNT]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Captivate\
but it's not there. I'm wondering if the source of my
problems have to do with the fact that I have Vista Home Basic
instead of Vista Home Premium. Premium is actually printed on the
Captivate box as a requirement. Would that be the issue? Should I
upgrade? As a PC novice, I'm a little unsure if my computer (see
description in earlier post) has the requirements for the
upgrade--support for DirectX 9 graphics with a WDDM Driver, 128 MP
of graphics memory (minimum), Pixel Shader 2.0 in hardware, and 32
bits per pixel.
Anyone PC people out there think not having Vista Premium
might be the issue and hazard a guess if my machine will support
it? Thanks so much for the help!

Syncing process takes forever

Synching my ipod touch is fast and easy - but when I connect my ipad to the same imac (same imac supports my ipod touch), it takes forever to start the syncing process then when it does finally start, it takes forever to complete the sync. Running latest "OSes" on imac and ipad. It took 6 plus hours yesterday transferring >9k photos - to the ipad when most were already on the ipad -- why recopy them?
Today, the synch process -- even if initiated right after a sucessful sync (what could change in the one minute!) takes forever. Per above, running the lates updates on ipad and imac. No voice messages in the equation.

EXS24 Saving takes a LONG time. Bad EXS flaw?

Hi all.
My EXS takes forever to save a new patch. I've had this problem for years and just dealt with it. But now, I'm sick of it.
The reason it takes so long is because of the way the EXS insists on rebuilding/rescanning your entire EXS library every time you add something new to it. It's completely unnecessary. And it makes things a nightmare for those of us who run LARGE exs24 libraries.
I've read of other people with the same problem (I've still never come across a solution!) yet still this problem exists. I can only assume that Apple seem to think that's is perfectly fine for those of us who run large EXS libraries to WAIT for anywhere up to or above 5 MINUTES just to save a new patch to their libraries.
The way it is set up (rescanning the library every time you add something new) clearly doesn't take into account those of us who run large libraries.
It has also made the wonderful new "Convert to New Instrument" virtually unusable to me, as every time I use it, the EXS then rescans the entire EXS library because I've added something new to it, so I literally sit there for ~5 minutes. God help me if I want to use that feature a few times while I'm working on something!
PLEASE FIX THIS APPLE!
Now my question:
Is there ANYBODY out there running a LARGE EXS LIBRARY (mine is about 350gb) who DOESN'T have this problem saving new patches?
If so, how do you get around this?
I've been on Logic for years (back to vers 4 or 5, I can't remember which) and this has ALWAYS been a terrible problem for as long as I've used the EXS as I've always run a large sample library. I'm pretty-much convinced that there is no solution to this and that it is just a terrible EXS flaw that Apple NEED TO FIX, but I guess I've got to ask before I give up entirely.
It shouldn't take 5 minutes to save an EXS patch on an 8-core Mac Pro. And again, it's not the saving of the patch that is the cause of the problem - it's the fact that the EXS rescans your library every time you add something new to it that CREATES this problem.
The main thing I was quietly hoping for before I installed the latest Snow Leopard and latest Logic 9 last week was "Maybe Apple have finally fixed the EXS saving issue!? I'll cross my fingers..!"
.... but no, it's still there. Still the same all these years later.
Anybody have any ideas on how to "minimize the damage" before Apple finally get off their bums and FIX this, and make the EXS more user-friendly for those of us who run large EXS libraries?
Thanks all.

Surely, it's best for organization to have everything TOGETHER?
No, it's best to keep the sampler instruments and samples separate, in the main. If you look at Logic's content, and the jam Pack instruments, they all follow this scheme as well.
By keeping the samples in your sampler instruments directory, you are adding tens of thousands of files to be searched through - no wonder it takes a long time - probably takes ages to load Logic as well.
In addition to the workaround mentioned previously - if you don't save your sampler instruments to the sampler instrument directory, but instead to some other place (eg, the desktop), does Logic rescan the menus? If not, then I'd suggest always saving away from the main sampler instruments directory, and then copy them back there afterwards.
That would take me years to re-organize, not to mention that it starts making things very messy.... having parts of my libraries HERE, and parts of my libraries THERE.... saving new instruments..... backing up libraries.... installing new libraries.... etc...
Not really. IN fact, keeping the samples next to the sampler instruments is in some ways a bad solution - what if you create different sampler instruments based on those samples - do you duplicate a second copy of those samples to keep with those sampler instruments, or do you keep the sampler instruments accessing the samples elsewhere?
BTW Redmatica's ProManager or EXSManager can reorganise your sample library for you in this or other ways checking duplicates, relinking your sampler instruments, and letting you control where you put the samples and how you wish to organise them. Worth thinking about.
My Sample Library is about 290gigs. I keep the sampler instruments and samples separate, and have no organisational problems. And I have no problems with long EXS menu reloads either.

K7N2 Delta ILSR Takes forever to boot.

Specs:
K7N2 Delta ILSR Mobo
Athlon xp 2500
Kingston Hyper X 2700 DDR 512mb (its on the list)
Geforce 2MX 32mb AGP videocard (I dont play games)
3 Com 56k Win Modem
IBM GXP120 60 gig ata133 Hard drive
Pine 12X DVD drive
LG 24x10x48 CD Burner
Antec 300W power supply
The problem is that it takes forever to install and boot windows with faster processors for some reason. I origianlly built this system with my old Athlon 1.33 and it had these problems. I then tried a 900mhz athlon and it worked great, so I figured I damaged my 1.33 somehow. I ordered a 2500+ and a zalmann cpu cooler and now am back to where I was, when the system starts it seems very unstable and the screen goes blank for 10 minutes while its booting. It shows about 3 seconds of the starting windows screen then the screen will go blank for a while anf there will be no hard drive activity then it will come back about 10 minutes later and then boot. Sometimes the system will work fine then sometimes I cant even open my computer i just get the searching flashlight icon where my drives should be. I have updated to the lastet BIOS. Also while installing windows I get ocasional long pauses where it is doing nothing at all then it will just magically conitnue and do it in a fashion I would expect a machine of this speed to do.

Hmm not sure about the cable position on the CD drives, ill have to check that when I get home. All the jumpers are set correcly, and the hard drive is all by itself and its on the right connector. Thanks for the ideas, this problem is really killing me, I havent had these kind of hardware problems in years. The thing I dont get is why it works good with the 900mhz and not with the 1.33 or 2500+

HI, I just got a Macbook Pro. It's great but my mail doesn't work at all. It will come up correctly, but take forever to download messages, then won't delete them, then won't save them to folders. Then when I go to quit mail it's like it gets stuck.

HI, I just got a Macbook Pro. It's great but my mail doesn't work at all. It will come up correctly, but take forever to download messages, then won't delete them, then won't save them to folders. Then when I go to quit mail it's like it gets stuck between quitting and not. I have to force quit, then restart my computer if I want to pull up my mail again. How can I fix this?

If you just got your new MBP you have phone support from Apple (which is quite good) call them. 800-692-7753 tell the automated answerer "mail technical support" you'll have human quite quickly. Hope this helps.

MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-857D takes forever to erase 100MB file from CD-RW disc

My new MBP works phantastic. Only one thing is weird. The MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-857D takes forever to erase contents on a CD-RW, about 5-10 times longer than my nearly 5 years old IBM Thinkpad T30.
Is this normal and expected?
MacBook Pro 15'' 2.33 Core 2 Duo 2GB RAM 160 GB HD Mac OS X (10.4.9) IBM ThinkPad T30 XP Pro

It might take longer, it depends on the type of drive your Thinkpad had. Most notebooks, even older ones, have 8x DVD ROM drives, while due to the thin nature of the MBP it has a 6x DVD ROM drive, which means it does work slower.
