Slooooow file opening (for a new machine) - why?

I've recently upgraded my OS to Win7 & I'm running a quad core 2.8Ghz on an Intel SSD drive, 8GB RAM, 64-bit system, 1GB Graphics RAM, 5GB available RAM in photoshop.
Problem is, when opening a batch of small 4x6's (300dpi), I'm seeing major hesitation between files (eg to open 8 jpg @ 1800x1200, it takes 6 seconds).
This has me a little worried, as I commonly process batches of 50+ jpegs.
I've disabled automatic creation of snapshots, updated Photoshop & I'm running the latest Graphics driver.
The only thing I've noticed is that Open GL drawing gets disabled when I open more than 28 4x6's, and that my graphics card (EVGA 01G-P3-N964-LR GeForce 9600 GSO 1GB) is labelled in photoshop as a GeForce 9600 GSO 512 (I guess that's OK though as it's probably just an umbrella name for the drivers that work the card--the card is listed correctly in Control Panel in the GeForce controller)
Any suggestions where to start looking for a fix?
Thanks

Are you using an external hard drive? Then this may help, it helped me. I was experiencing the same problem opening files as well as saving files - it was extremely slow. Open up 'Control Panel', then 'Device Manager', right-click on your external hard drive (under the 'Disk drives') and select 'Properties', then click on the 'Policies' tab. Select 'Better performance'. This made a huge difference in the opening and saving times of all my files.
Good luck!

    Hi,
    First of all, you'll need to work out if the problem is install/machine based, or user-based. Get the users than can't open the file to log in on the machines of the two people that can open the report. What happens?
    If they can open the report on the other machine, it's a client issue, I'd suggest a double-check that the versions match and/or a re-install.
    If they can't open the reports on the other machines then it's a server/user problem. Either examine the user accounts to identify the differences, or just re-create the users from scratch to match the two users who can open the reports.

  • UsiTime Machine to move an old machine's file organization to a new machine

    I have an Old 24" IMac and an newer imac. Time Machine is resident on an external HD, and I want to swap out machines, BUT while preserving the organization and files of the older machine.
    Possible? Or must I reformat, port from Snow Leopard or Leopard and use the utilities==? restore option?
    Thanks

    Thanks,
    nice to find more paranoid people...I learnt the hard way. When Time Machine was new I embraced it with relief told a machine about to be moved out of production to make a back up...it reported that it had. I erased the machine...successive 1s and 0s and then found Time Machine reported incorrectly, it made a disk image not a full backup. Sixteen years of data gone...three weeks to pice it together from network, thumb drives, CDs and Zip drive backups...never fully. After a go round with Apple support up the chain, Apple made a service and interface change so others could not do the same. The old adage: "I may be paranoid...but it doesn't mean that they are not out to get me" resonates here. Your procedure suggestions are helpful.
    Yes, I have used Wikidot since Snow Leopard came out. Many problems are identified, including the one with the Adobe products. But not many fixes are posted unfortunately. The site has a neat little client for you own machine to scour problem software that one may have installed. I found it useful.
    RE the new machine...it is brand new out of the box. Well new three months ago, I have not had time to put it in production till now. I am inclined to update to Snow leopard and then add files....living a bit dangerously. BUT I will not give up the full back up... just in case. (-;
    Thanks also for the tip to Carbon Copy Cloner...I am will acquire it asap.

  • Air and spry (adding observer and addEventListener to spry regions links to open for a new window)

    I'm trying to add a region.addobserver and addEventListener to spry regions so the links; that come for a external feed, opens in a new(default browser) window when clicked. The on*  events in regions do not work in AIR so, is there a way to do this?
    I have read a lot of the documentation on spry regions, addObserver and the addEventlistener but the samples don't deal with anything about external xml feeds with links in a spry region for a AIR app.
    The closiest i saw was the gallery http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/articles/air/photo_gallery.html,  but it doesn't deal with:
    links,
    in a external RSS feed,
    in the spry region,
    to a new default browser.
    Has anybody  tried this before? Can it be done?
    Ex:
              <div spry:region="rssDataNews" class="SpryHiddenRegion">
              <div spry:state="loading" id="notification2">Loading feeds, please wait ...<img src="assets/spinner.gif"></div>
              <div spry:state="error">Failed to load data! Please try again later</div>
                <table width="100%" spry:state="ready">
                  <tr spry:repeat="rssDataNews" class="{ds_EvenOddRow}" spry:select="mySelectClass">
                    <td class="cellPad">
                    <span style="font-weight:bold">{title}</span><br /><br />
                    {description}<br />
                     <a href="{link}" target="_blank">[Read full article]</a><br /><br />
                    </td>
                  </tr>
                </table>
          <div>
    The <a href > only opens the url in the native AIR window. I need it to open in a web browser.

    About on* events
    They do work, but not as attribute on your HTML elements, you will need to use eventlisteners to attach them on the relevant nodes.
    How: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/dom_utils/add_event_listener.html
    About links
    Currently in Adobe AIR, its not (easily) possible to open or execute other programs on the users PC. I have seen die hard hacker user Java to get around this limitation. But i suggest you check out the Adobe AIR forum to confirm that you cant open links in the users browser.
    But, Adobe AIR is basically a browser

  • I can't open pdf files with Ibooks app. The files open for some seconds and then they disappear! Thanks

    Files open and disappear in few seconds!

    It sounds like the app is crashing for whatever reason. Start with simple, easy things.
    Quit iBooks and restart the iPad.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    If those things do not help - you may want to consider deleting the iBooks app and reinstall it. Make sue that all of your books and pdf files have been backed up and synced with iTunes before you delete the app.

  • Startup problems--time for a new machine?

    I have an imac G5 that I bought last February. In the last few weeks I've been experiencing serious startup problems. When turned on, the screen goes gray and the lines and pixels fragment and shimmer. It takes a long time to go to the main screen and often the screen isn't stable and freezes. It takes me eight to ten startups to get the system stable.
    I've repaired disk permissions, repaired h-drive, reset Pram. Still a mess. My husband wants me to just get a new one and get something that is not an Apple this time. I'm resisting that.
    I don't want to lose all my data and I've backed up what I can but I'm worried the data is corrupted and if I load it on to a new machine, I will experience the same problems.
    Any advice? I'm not even sure if this is a hardware or software problem. I'm out of warranty so I am on my own, but I'm frustrated to be having these problems with such a new machine.
    Thanks for any advice,

    Cassandra, in addition to Barbara's excellent suggestion: looking to see if you qualify for the program, please make sure that you have an external FireWire drive and clone your drive, (SuperDuper is an excellent choice for backing up, cloning and making scehduled backups).

  • Check if file open for read (INPUT)

    in other program:
    open dataset dsn for output in text mode encoding default.

  • Regarding ports opening for patching client machine in DMZ.

    Hi ,
    Regarding SCCM patching to Client Machine on DMZ.
    I have SCCM server and WSUS server
    both are different machines.My software update point is configured to port 8530.
    I have a client machine in DMZ and want to do patching for the DMZ machine.
    Ports opened from my DMZ machine to SCCM server are 445,135,80,443,8530
    1.Do the above ports are fine to do patching ?
    2.Do we require communication between DMZ and SCCM server on port 8530 for patching on DMZ machine?
    Regards,
    Arjun

    Hi Arjun,
    The answer to the first question you will find in the link Torsten posted.
    The answer to the second question: Whether you should open port 8530 depends on where your Software Update Point and where the Site Server are. It must be opened for the following communication:
    Client -- > Software Update Point
    Site Server < -- > Software Update Point
    Software Update Point -- > Upstream WSUS Server
    If you have only a client in DMZ the port must be opened for the communication with the SUP.
    Regarding the 3rd statement: If you are not able to telnet to the port on the server, this would mean that the communication is blocked somehow. You must make sure, that you are able to telnet to it.
    Hope this helps. Regards,
    Stoyan

  • Excel Survey in SharePoint: is the responses file open for everyone?

    If I make an Excel Survey in OneDrive for Business, is the Excel Workbook that contains the responses open for everybody? Because if it's not, are the users able to submit a survey?
    Is there another way of doing an Excel survey where the responses will remain visible only for the author?

    Hi,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to make the responses that remain visible only for the survey owner/author. If yes, please try this: we might create a survey that others fill out just by
    opening the link you provide. You’ll see everyone’s response compiled in one online spreadsheet.

  • Whilst using FF20.0.1 and now with FF21 the new tab thumbnails fail to open for each new session. Why?

    For a long time my chosen websites appeared as thumbnail images on the new tab page when I began a new session, maybe since about FF15, I don't recall for sure. Recently, however, whilst using FF20.0.1 this behaviour stopped and none of the thumbnail images for my selected websites opened up, although the links to them remained and this behaviour has continued to FF21, which I have been using since yesterday (19th May). This is not a serious issue, but I do like things to work properly and to understand why they don't. I don't know why there should be a relationship between the two events, but the problem began after having opened the new tab page and before the images opened up I clicked on one of the links - where the thumbnail image would normally be - to go to the website; thereafter FF failed to retain a memory of the thumbnail images from one session to the next. By the way, I never empty my history cache only my main web cache that has previously had no effect on my new tab thumbnails, not since about FF15 or so anyway.

    Cor-el, hi.
    When I opened FF about ten minutes ago I noticed that the new tab thumbnail image I had brought up from my previous session had been remembered, so I opened some of the other websites listed to bring back their images too; I then shut FF down, re-opened it and the new tab page to find all the images had been recalled. Next, I shut down the computer to determine whether or not the images were getting lost that way; on rebooting the computer and launching FF I again found the images were still there. Now I closed the new tab and emptied the main cache (43 MB); on opening the new tab the images were still opening (you will recall that when the new tab thumbnails first came out they disappeared on emptying the main cache). Bearing all this in mind I have not yet tried your suggestion of temporarily disabling the add-ons in safe mode because if the thumbnail images came up that would not currently tell me anything. Also, the problem I described in my first post does not remotely coincide with the installation of any add-ons, which have not been recent. Given then that my thumbnails are appearing after the cache has been cleared where does FF get them from now? I still don't understand this recent behaviour and why for the moment the problem is not occurring. Thanks again.

  • Jpeg files opening in photoshop- not sure why

    not sure if anyone will be able to answer this... i'm trying to make a disc for someone from pictures from iphoto. some have been edited in photoshop and then imported as jpegs to iphoto. now when i export some of these to a burn folder on my desktop and then open them from there, it opens them in photoshop. don't know why it's doing this since they are now jpegs and not photoshop files. the person i am making the disc for doesn't own a mac and doesn't have photoshop so i don't know if they'll be able to access the photos.  any insight into this? thanks.

    It doesn't matter. The app that will open these files on their machine will be whatever is set there for opening the jpegs.

  • Certain PDF files open with scrambled contents? Why?

    I received two brochures from some colleagues but the text and graphics were scrambled - photos were OK. I thought they sent damaged files. I sent them a screen shot of what I saw when I opened them and they in return sent a screen shot of what they saw when they opened the same files. Theirs showed a perfect brochure. I have since opened the same pdf at work and it was fine there too - BUT it opens scrambled on my iphone and iMac desktop. 
    Why would Apple products not be able to read or display a pdf? I thought a pdf was universal....
    Is there a solution to this? I made sure all my software on my macBook pro was updated and still no luck.
    Here are the two screen shots - first is how the pdf looks when I see it. Second one is how everyone else sees it.....
    Thank you for any suggestions to this problem. This is for a very important cause -my brother's orphanage- so I hope it can be resolved soon!
    Thank you,
    Bob

    Might be caused by some old Adobe Plug-Ins lurking around somewhere?

  • When attempting to play songs on itunes, getting error message that file cannot be found and asked if i want to locate it.  not sure where it went. do have new computer and all files were transferred to new machine.

    I just tried to play some songs that i have in itunes and i get an error message that says file can't be located.  It appears to be on about half the songs of the thousands I have in there.  I do have a new computer and transferred the itunes library about a month ago.  I have successfully managed ipod on new computer.  I wonder if it is a licensing issue but this is just the second computer althought the third hard drive these songs have been on.  It is affecting songs loaded from CD's and purchased from itunes on the old computer alike. 

    Hi angela dfromtx,
    When tracks in iTunes display a it means the file cannot be located; it may have been moved or deleted. You'll have to locate the file manually if it is still available. For more information refer to the following article:
