Serious CS4 Problem Lounge

I wanted to share unexpected and unseen problem I experience with my Photoshop cs4 trial - permanently.
And I remarkably hope that someone of you guys will be able to give some advice how to overcome this:
When I OPEN A PHOTOGRAPHY IT DEFACES IT IN SOME KIND OF GEOMETRICAL COLOR AND PIXEL SQUARES which change their look depending on zoom level.
And only passing >200% bound it starts to depict picture normally.
Basically program itself works fine - it doesn't slow down computer and completes all tasks in no time, so I don't think it could be a hardware problem (my 32 bit Windows Vista based machine is far above minimal sys req; my video card is ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2600).
Maybe some sort of drivers or updates could resolve this?
But where to get one?

that's nice robert, but it has nothing to do with this topic. :)
klavs, I agree with bart. it COULD be bad ram...
( Chris Cox - 01:17pm Feb 7, 2003 Pacific (#7 of 15) -If you zoom in and they go away, it's probably the video card. -If you zoom in and out and they change, it's probably bad RAM. )
but as there's loads of new stuff related to the video card in cs4, definitely update your video drivers before you go crazy looking for bad RAM sticks.
>Maybe some sort of drivers or updates could resolve this?
yes, try that first. if it doesn't fix it, you must consider RAM, as that behavior has been a symptom for a long time...
>But where to get one?

you may need to hit a slightly different site if you're not USA based. if so, start at http://www.amd.com , select your region then look for support and drivers.

Serious performance problems on iWeb site

Can anyone help me find the problem with peterlance.com? It looks like author Peter Lance uses iWeb to update his web site. He redesigned it recently (and did not use iWeb for the old design). Anyway, it has serious performance problems on Internet Explorer, which I was hoping you guys could help pinpoint? Is there something simple I can tell him to try to fix the problem? He is launching a new book on Tuesday so he will be getting a lot of traffic, but for now the response time is not very good. Any suggestions?
In particular, each new page seems to hang for about ten seconds and freeze using Internet Explorer 6. Any fixes?
I mean, fixes other than: "Don't use Internet Explorer!"

Welcome to the discussions, TopDog08.
There are several plain .jpg's and that's good, but you need to convert every .png on the page (or as many .png's as you can) to a .jpg. For example,
http://www.peterlance.com/Peter%20Lance/Home/Homefiles/shapeimage46.png
Convert that to a jpg, then replace the graphic and text on the iWeb page with this converted jpg (some have has success using Downsize http://www.stuntsoftware.com/Downsize/)
The ones you won't be able to do anything about are the ones that are a part of the blog, but that will be only 5 images instead of the many you have now.
This image
http://www.peterlance.com/Peter%20Lance/Home/Homefiles/shapeimage50.png
Is covering part of your menu which is why it appears that only the top half is sensitive to rolling over. You'll have to adjust your layout to account for this.
Another area to look at, there are white boxed png's surrounding the amazon book covers at the top.
http://www.peterlance.com/Peter%20Lance/Home/Homefiles/imageEffectsAboveAli%20Mug%20TPI%20jpg.png
Another set of .png's you'll have to get rid of. How did those get put on the page?
What you see happening with IE is a java script running to fix IE's problem with png's. The fewer .png's you have, the less of a problem with IE you have.

Serious performance problems after updating from 10.5.6 to 10.5.7

I've got a Macbook Pro C2D 15" (late 2006). After updating the system from 10.5.6 to 10.5.7 and quicktime to 7.6.2, I experience serious performance problems which I have never seen before:
-From time to time, kernel_task has peaks in activity monitor (consumes a lot of CPU). In that moment, the mouse hangs for a short moment and audio playback is distorted/has drop outs.
-Recording audio consumes a lot of CPU (independent of the audio application).
-Video playback consumes a lot of CPU, regardless if I use VLC or the quicktime player.
Any idea what could be done? Thanks in advance.

After a few days of using CoolBook I report that my 1st generation MacBook Air is now reliable and never overheating, regardless of environment conditions.
I must point out that I do believe that it really is something new in 10.5.7 that is causing this problem as my environmental conditions have not changed and even Summer in Dublin still sees temperatures no more than 72F/22C. I am now in Madrid, where the environment is quite different, and I am still having no problem with kernel_task spinning.
I plan on reporting my problem to Apple anyway and being aggressive about the issue as MacLovinRanga did in this thread (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9647353#9647353). Perhaps many/all of those of us having this problem will obtain new MacBook Airs.

Serious performance problems

Hi
I am having some very serious performance problems witgh java web start. I have a swing client that transmits XML/HTTP to and from a server, parses it, etc... I am finding that the XML/HTTP data request
is a factor of 10 to 100X slower, at least, using Java Web Start than without.
Any suggestions would be helpful
Thanks
Charles

Charles,
I've also observed some overhead when running an application deployed with JAWS compared to running the application from the jar, or in my dev environment.
After searching these forums a bit, I found this buried nugget of info: Try System.setSecurityManager(null) if you are requesting <all-permissions/> already.
Before the workaround, my application was taking 194 seconds for a single analysis run. After this workaround was applied, the same analysis run took only 82 seconds.
So as you can see, there is considerable overhead associated with performing operations through the layers of security (my guess). My particular application does a lot of disk I/O (which is probably something the security manager watches closely).
I stress the 'workaround' aspect of this because I haven't fully investigated the ramifications of using it, but eventually this might turn into a bug submission (because if I'm already requesting all-permissions, why do I still need to do setSecurityManager(null)?).
At any rate, hope this helps!

***Serious iPod Problems***

My brother is havign some serious iPod problems. A while ago the battery died after having it for about 2 years. He just had the battery replaced, it will atleast bootup now, but it wont get passed the Apple logo. I can get it to boot into Disk Mode, then reset it, but it still wont get passed the Apple logo. Does anyone have any idea what's happened to it?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Jeff, thanks for the response, i have been able to do that a bunch of times today, i've even opened up the Disk utility and erased and then done it, no such luck, it just wont get passed the apple screen

Serious System Problems. Pictures and Documents folders are opening iPhoto when clicked. iPhoto Library gone.

I have been speaking to Old Toad for the majority of today trying to fix my iPhoto Library as its become corrupt and I cannot get my photos/videos back into iPhoto. After many many suggestions I seem to have created some serious system problems.
PLEASE READ ALL OF THIS THREAD...

If anybody can be of assisatance that would be a great help.
I am a mac dummie, recently transfered so foolproof guidance will be helpfull!
(Unfortunatly.. and now I know the importance, I haven't used time-machine and my mac isn't backed up. If i restore to factory settings I will loose the 600+ photos and videos I had in my iPhoto Library.... which dissapeared, which is the whole reason why I created the first thread)
Thank you!!

Linc:
It appeared to me that somehow the OP's Picture folder was converted into an iPhoto Library as his screenshot of the PIctures folder looked like the inside of a library.
This statement by the OP make me think it might be more than just an iPhoto issue (the bold text):
I am unable to drag the Picture folder to the desktop, It wont move, and iPhoto (which is still empty) just opens.
Some how the same is happening with Documents,

Serious display problem. Please help!

I'm having a serious display problem all of a sudden. It is not application specific. Various different applications are pixelating, especially wherever I move my cursor and click the mouse. When I grab the entire application with the cursor and move it, the image duplicates into hundreds of images all over my screen. If I shake it around awhile, eventually it goes back to normal. What is going on??!!
Here's some background info: I'm on a 2009 Mac Pro. I still use the old fashioned tube monitors with mini display port to VGA converters, but I've never had a problem up until now. Just before the problem started happening, I tried to open up some .jpg files in Quicktime Pro 7.
I would greatly appreciate any ideas of what the problem could be and how to fix it.

Might you have moved the Home folder or its contents, or renamed it? If you think that's what happened, this article may help:

CS4 Problems on new iMac

1. I installed CS4 on my new iMac running Mavericks. I ran the updater but the updater can't update itself ("couldn't access disc image") so now I can't update any of the CS4 components. Help!
2. My RAW files (imported from my previous Mac using Time Machine) all appear as unconverted DNG files. I'd like to avoid spending hours converting them all again. Is this a CS4 problem or maybe a Mac problem? Should I restore my photo library from Time Machine again, now that I've installed CS4? Any ideas on solving these problems would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

CS4 is unsupported under Mavericks. Someone who has successfully done this
may be able to help, but unfortunately you're pretty much on your own here.

its not related to any hardware because last year april i got replacement new phone from apple and i maintained it well...!

Probably apps running in the background are causing this, sometimes Mail get's stuck connecting to the mail server, or some social media app like Facebook can also be a reason for prolonged background activity.
Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.

Hello labmaster,
It sounds to me like your system is capable of connecting to the internet, but that it is unable to do much beyond this. It appears that these applications that you are trying to build in LabVIEW are exposing some of the networking limitations that exist on your machine. Unfortunately I do not know what to make of the port scan that you have provided. There can be many causes of networking issues that you would want to troubleshoot with your IT department or network card manufacturer. What I can do is to provide you with a list of ports used by National Instruments software. You will want to be sure that no packets are being blocked on these ports. Also keep in mind that when using TCP or UDP communication, you can specify the ports which you are using. Also, as a starting point, you may want to disable any antivirus software or firewalls that might hinder communication. I hope that this will at least get you started in figuring out some of these networking difficulties. Thanks,
Mike D.

Serious date problem

I am using Form 6i.
I am getting serious date problem.
The MM/DD/RRRR is converted to DD/MM/RRRR and the result is false record.
How to avoid this serious problem. I am very shocked to find this error after few hours of brainstorming session.

Thanks and regards,

I've just noticed something in the where clause that makes all this a lot easier.
     CURSOR cur_first IS SELECT      a.item_code,
     b.item_description,
     a.lot_no,
     d.name model,
     c.vendname,
     date_of_purchase,
     warrenty_upto,
     quentaty,
     rate,
     pc_type,
     warrenty_upto AS amc_date
     FROM      pc_item_procurement_history a,
                    pc_item_master b,
                    pc_vendor_master c,
                    pc_model_master d
     WHERE a.item_code= b.item_code
     AND a.modelcode=d.modelcode
     AND a.vendcode=c.vendcode
     AND (b.item_description LIKE '%'||:blk_main.item_name||'%' OR :blk_main.item_name IS NULL)
     AND (a.warrenty_upto <= :blk_main.to_date OR :blk_main.to_date IS NULL)
     AND warrenty_flag_yn='W'
     ORDER BY b.item_description;BUT...
Is Warrenty_upto really a date column? You say it is "stored as m/d/yyyy" but a date is not stored with a format in oracle - it's just a date and the format is applied when you retrieve the data.
In sql*plus if you Describe the table you can see the column type. If you select the data you only ever get a string.
I'm assuming :blk_main.to_date is a date.

Kuler panel in CS4 problem

Hello,
I am having a serious problem with kuler panel in FW, AI, PS
and with search field in FW + AI.
http://www.designme.sk/junk/omg.png
Cant see the kuler colors as they should look like, because
they are covered with yellow tint (looks like 50% alpha).
This was happening on with my old graphics (geforce 8600gt),
but happens with new (radeon hd4670) one also. Latest drivers,
latest updates, lates everything.. So I reinstalled windows, sp3,
windows update, new drivers, clean CS4 install.. Same freakin
problem. Can anyone tell what is the problem here? I am using
download version cs4 design premium english.

Another thought that may help. If you look at the Settings
tab of the Display Properties of your desktop, is the screen
resolution correct. Also is the color quality set to at least
Medium (16 bit) color or Highest (32 bit) color. If it's less than
this, you may get the yellowish overtone. I just VPNed into a
client and saw the same effect because the color quality was set to
256.
Hope this helps to resolve your problem

Photoshop/Bridge CS4 problem with AFP shares

Hello,
I have recently purchased Photoshop CS4 and encountered the following problem: when opening images from a NAS share connected via AFP using File/Open command, Photoshop will correctly display the list of files but Open command in the File open dialog remains disabled after a file is selected from the list.However, I can open the same file by dragging and dropping it from the Finder to the Photoshop Dock icon or later using the Open recent menu command.
Similar problem is visible in Bridge: it will not display the image thumbnails from any of the subfolders in the network share.
I am using Leopard with the latest updates, I have a read/write permissions to the network share and Photoshop/Bridge are the only applications that have problems browsing/opening files from the network share. The NAS unit is a Synology DS-107+ with the latest official firmware.
Futhermore, I have noticed that I can work around the problem by opening the same directory in Finder. After the image thumbnails are visible in Finder, both Photoshop and Bridge will correctly open all files in that directory but opening files from other directories still has the problem.
Does anyone have any idea on what might be causing this strange problem?

This is the boilerplate text I use in connection to saving to a network (please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe):
If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
See:
http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/322391.html
Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work. It should.
Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.

PS CS4 problems with OpenGL drawing enabled

I've just upgraded from PS CS3 to PS CS4 (default 32 and 64 versions) and I'm having problems with seeing image files above a certain size (even moderate size) with OpenGL Drawing enabled. Disabling OpenGL Drawing results in very slow image display (very easy to see the blocks being drawn one at a time), much slower than with PS CS3.
I'm running Vista 64 with latest updates. I'm trying to get PS CS4 32 running properly first, but PS CS4 64 seems to be having similar problems.
GeForce 9600 GT video card with latest driver 178.24 (updated yesterday and rebooted many times since then). That card is in Adobe's list of tested cards.
Main monitor (where I display Photoshop images) selected as primary in the driver dialog.
I put palettes/panes on my 2nd monitor.
I use Ultramon for 2nd monitor taskbar functionality. Turning Ultramon off doesn't seem to help, although I may need to disable Ultramon from launching on reboot.
No plugins installed yet in PS CS4 (32), as per Adobe kb advice.
4GB of RAM with Memory Usage set within Photoshop's Ideal Range.
For testing, I've been opening a few different size (px and bytes) RGB image files in Photoshop by dragging them from an Explorer window into the Photoshop window, then clickin in the Photoshop window to make Photoshop active and show its palettes.
First with OpenGL Drawing enabled in Performance, default Advanced Settings.
JPEG, 3600 x 2600 px, 4.5MB
- opens and displays ok (short delay before palettes appear)
- zooms and rotates smoothly
TIFF, 2 layers, 800 x 600 px, 16 bits, 2.5MB
- opens and displays ok (short delay before palettes appear)
- zooms and rotates smoothly
TIFF, 1 layer, 3600 x 2600 px, 16 bits, 54MB
- doesn't open properly, shows checkerboard instead of image, with checkerboard in navigator and layer icon in layers pane
- histogram is fine
- zooming and rotation are not smooth (jumps to new position/size)
- duplicate layer caused PS CS4 to stop working, with a close program dialog
- open PS CS4 32 again, no OpenGL message today, and OpenGL Drawing is still enabled (although I got the OpenGL Drawing message more than once yesterday)
TIFF, several layers, 3600 x 2600 px, 16 bits, 306 MB
- doesn't open properly, shows checkerboard instead of main image
- icons in layers pane look fine, same as navigator image
- checkerboard zooms and rotates smoothly
- duplicate layer is still checkerboard, back one history state stopped working / close program dialog
- started PS again, opened 1 layer TIFF, closed and tried to open multi layer TIFF again, but stopped working / close program dialog again
I then tried the same images with OpenGL Drawing disabled in Performance.
3600 x 2600 px JPEG
- ok, but slow, blocky redraw
2 layer 800 x 600 px TIFF
- ok, but slight delay in redraw (smallest of all the files, both in px and bytes)
1 layer 3600 x 2600 px TIFF
- opened ok, but slow, blocky redraw
multi layer 3600 x 2600 px TIFF
- opened ok, but slow, blocky redraw
From what I've read in various Adobe kb notes, it sounds like there's some kind of conflict with my video driver, but I haven't been able to figure it out. I even tried the registry plugin from the Adobe kb to disallow OpenGL Windows, but that didn't seem to make any difference. It didn't even stop me being able to select and use OpenGL Drawing in PS CS4.
Any help would be much appreciated. I'm tearing my hair out here and I'm feeling a bit like I've blown my money on the upgrade so far.

I had another look at PS CS4 64 and those smaller (by file size) images that I can see with OpenGL Drawing on rotate and resize in a jumpy way, not smoothly like in PS CS4 32.
The multi layer TIFF that showed the images in at least the layers pane and navigator when using PS CS4 32 only shows the checkerboard in the layers pane and navigator in PS CS4 64.
Either way, neither version is anywhere near working properly.
Oh yeah, and I made a typo on the RAM. It's 6GB and not 4GB, not that I think that would make any difference.
